[Top photo]This is the so-called Atala Devi Mosque at Jaunpur in Uttar Pradesh. Atala Devi is a Hindu goddess of inexorable fate. Therefore, it is obvious that her imposing Hindu temple is being currently misused as a mosque and is blatantly characterized as a piece of Islamic architecture. General Cunningham, a British novice who set up the archaeology department under the British administration, made the initial blunder of assuming that historic buildings in Muslim possession were built by the Muslims themselves.
[Lower photo] This tripolia i.e. three-arched gateway of Karnawati (Islamized as Ahmedabad) is falsely being ascribed to Sultan Ahmad of Gujarat. The window above each archway was meant to shower sacred grain and rose water over entering or departing Hindu royalty. Over the centuries under Islamic rule, history became a matter of mere hearsay. Ahmedabad was from its very name presumed by errant historians to have been founded by Ahmadshah. By the same token, would it be right to assert that Delhi's Rashtapati Bhawan was built for the first Rashtrapati?

Ahmedabad's Hindu names were Karnavati, Rajnagar and Asaval. Invading Muslims proselytized whole cities by imposing an Islamic name on them. They also simultaneously converted the main Hindu shrines into Muslim. This is one such currently called the Jama Masjid but which in fact was the city's central Bhadrakali temple. Mosques do not have rows of such ornamental pillars lest Muslim congregations bending in prayer with eyes closed smash their heads against the pillars and bleed. In Gwalior too the so-called Mahomed Ghaus mausolem has an identical interior proving that that too is a usurped temple.
[Top photo] Elephants on elevated platforms curving their trunks in a welcome arch over the gate of the city palace, Kota, a principality. Goddess Lakshmi is also flanked by such welcoming elephants. Fatehpur Sikri too has an identical gate. Had Akbar erected that township its gate should not have had that Hindu design. Moreover those elephants have been beheaded, which is additional proof that on capture of that township Muslim occupants couldn't bear the sight of those Hindu elephants. Guides usually skip that gate. Before hiring the guide, visitors must insist that he show them the elephant gate also.
[Lower photo] An apartment of city palace, Kota, a Hindu capital. Pictorial patterns on walls are a Hindu feature. Therefore picturesque walls behind the royal seat in the Red Forts in Delhi and Agra, are proof of their Hindu origin. Similarly, the palace in Srirangapatnam with painted designs on its walls usually ascribed to the Muslim Tipu Sultan is of Hindu origin.

Currently known as Adhai-din-ka-Zopda (the 2-1/2 day cottage) in Ajmer (alias Ajeya-Meru) this edifice was a magnificent, majestic Hindu temple. Invading Muslims battering it for 2-1/2 days after capture reduced the mansion to desolation--hence the name. Historians, architects and archaeologists blindly ascribing it to Muslim creation lustily describe ancient classic Hindu architectural masterpieces as Islamic.

Twenty-five miles from Baroda (now Vadodara) city is a fort Pavagad. At its foot is a beautiful township called Champaner. Most of its magnificent Hindu buildings are being misused and misrepresented as mosques and tombs. Here is one truncated ornamental Hindu palace pavilion being paraded as a mosque. Being exquisitely carved, Muslims call it Nagina (ornamented) mosque. The lotus pattern flanking the arches is typically Hindu. Intricate, ornamented carving is sacrilegious and distracting for Muslims. The battered top indicates how destroyers have called themselves builders.

These are two lamp posts of an ancient Hindu temple battered by invading Muslims near Mhasve village in Jalgaon district of Maharashtra. They are only a foot apart. If one person climbs up to the top of each of these pillars and one stretches his leg thrusting it against the other lamp post, both the pillars rock gently. Ancient Hindus raised such rocking edifices in many other places such as Gurdaspur and Ahmedabad alias Karnavati .

[Top photo] This building at Aurangabad in the Deccan was built by a Hindu Raja who was impressed by the Tajo-Mahalaya in Agra when he visited it on pilgrimage in pre-Muslim times. Ironically, Shahjahan planted a grave in the Agra building while his son and successor Aurangzeb planted his own wife's (fake) grave in the Aurangabad building. Other historic buildings in Aurangabad are similarly of Hindu origin though they are currently ascribed to Muslims by somnolent historians. The Hindu origin of this building, now wrongly dubbed as Bibi-Ka-Makabara, is discussed in Mr. P. N. Oak's article in the Deepavali 1972 number of Marathi Dharmabhaskar monthly.
[Bottom photo] In Farkanday village in Jalgaon district in Maharashtra is this ancient Hindu temple currently used as a mosque. If one person climbs to the top of each of the two towers and hugs the window vigorously, both the towers rock gently as in an earthquake. This gimmick of ancient Hindu architecture has no parallel. Historians who ascribe such marvels to Muslims do not realize that Islam has no ancient architectural texts [or standards of construction methodology] of its own.

[This] Leaning lamp tower on the way from Asoda to Karkande village in Jalgaon District of Maharashtra is a rare specimen of Hindu architecture. The temple connected to this lamp tower was destroyed in Muslim attacks.
