The 1992 demolition of the Babri Masjid by Hindu nationalists \u2014 on the contested site where Rama's birth temple allegedly once stood \u2014 ignited riots that killed over 2,000 people. A 2019 Supreme Court ruling awarded the site to Hindus, and a grand Rama temple was inaugurated in 2024, revealing how deeply these sacred geographies are bound to Hindu identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prayagraj hosts the Kumbh Mela, the world's largest human gathering, drawing 400\u2013500 million pilgrims \u2014 many traveling from across the globe \u2014 the vast majority never having heard the Gospel.
