I've no clue what Nirmohi Akhara is...

*googles* here is what I found in another article:

Nirmohi Akhara

One third of the site will go to the Nirmohi Akhara, a group of Hindu ascetics who are devotees of none other than Lord Ram. Their name means, roughly, “Group Without Attachment.” They have given up the material world for the company of their god. They are “sadhus” – or Hindu holy men often characterized by the hermetic tendencies. They claimed in court that there is no mosque called Babri Masjid at the site in Ayodhya, nor did the Mughal commander Babur make any conquest or any occupation of territory in India. They also claimed the site is of ancient antiquity and has existed before the living memory of man.


So basically they're insane. Well, that's that then.


No one wants to put up with them at the extended family gatherings.

I do find it shocking that they can deny that Babur and the Mughals conquered India. It seems that there are so many attempts to whitewash Indian history, from so many viewpoints, that it's almost funny to watch (well for me anyway). It's almost commonplace now :D
