The monument is being neglected. The current government has an attitude which is very similar to ”not invented here" whereby anything not created by Hindus is not to be valued: https://www.firstpost.com/india/yogi-adiyanath-govt-in-uttar...

Hinduism is not a religion like Islam or Christianity. People in India behave as if it is. Our past was glorious. It, however, cannot guarantee a similar future unless people wake up.

Apparently most of the Maratha forts built by "Hindus" are also being neglected. The forts that I visited didn't even have presence of officials, let alone repairs(which is being pursued by the current government).

Another handle created merely minutes ago merely to reply to comments.

How frequently do you people monitor forums like HN? How many people work on this? Must be a dream job to get paid to read HN all day.

I don't know about the other guy, but hopefully you'll bear with me since I've been on HN for a while now and wasn't paid by a government IT cell to comment (since you seem to be implying that).

I am not sure what the parent commenter means by "Hinduism is not a religion like Islam or Christianity". Do they mean that Hindus don't practice Abrahamic principles? Because other than that, I'm not able to understand what they mean.
