Claim: Picture of the Virabhadreshwara temple that emerged while demolishing a Mosque in Raichur, Karnataka.
Fact-check: No Hindu temple has emerged while demolishing the Ek Minar Mosque in Raichur - FACTLY
Verdict: in 2016, as part of a road-widening project, the raichur district authorities demolished the ek minar mosque in raichur. the hindu communities in raichur then alleged that the pillars emerged from the demolition have a resemblance to the sculptural pillars built in hindu temples. however, the then raichur district magistrate clarified that these allegations made against the ek minar mosque in raichur are baseless. the virabhadreshwara or any other hindu temple did not emerge while demolishing the ek minar mosque in raichur. hence, the claim made in the post is misleading.
