In significant remarks amid the Gyanvapi mosque row, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Thursday said that matter is ongoing, history cannot be changed and neither today's Hindus nor today's Muslims created it. He also said "we shouldn't bring out a new matter daily" and "why look for a Shivling in every masjid".

"Gyanvapi matter is ongoing. We can't change history. Neither today's Hindus nor today's Muslims created it. It happened at that time. Islam came from outside via attackers. In the attacks, Devsthans were demolished to exhaust the morale of those who wanted India's independence," Bhagwat said at the conclusion ceremony of an organisaiton training programme in Nagpur.
