Recently the Gyanvapi Verdict of Varanasi has been in debate and is a reason for controversy in India. Manoj Muntashir’s “Patthar Gawahi Denge” went viral and started another level of nationwide debate. Captivating Lines by Manoj Muntashir has been interpreted by different people, news channels, Social Media, and what not. He is facing criticism from the people of his community.
I have tried to get the lyrics and interpret the meaning of “Patthar Gawahi Denge” in my words. I have visited the Kashi Vishwanath temple of Varanasi, and when you enter the temple, you can see the Gyanvaapi mosque.
When you look at the ruins on the right, you can see the statues of Hindu Gods and goddesses. Aurangzeb destroyed the old structure of the Vishwanath temple and built the famous Gyanvaapi Mosque.
Recently a Shivalinga was discovered at the place where Muslims coming to the Gyanvapi mosque performed Wazoo. It has been said that they knew that there is a Shivalinga, however, during wazoo, they used to spit on it.
The whole idea of respect for another religion gets destroyed here. The Hindu community is criticized for the establishment of the “Ram Temple” in Ayodhya and they are advised to follow secularism. However, there are too many questions, when someone tries to teach secularism to other religions.
During all this controversy, when the people of India were waiting for the Gyanvapi verdict, Manoj Muntashir came up with a small poem “Patthar Gawahi Denge”.

A poem on Gyanvapi Shivling and Gyanvapi Verdict
This is a poem on Gyanvapi Verdict and it simply means that if the court asks whether there should be a mosque or Shiva temple, the witnesses will be the rocks of Gyanvapi. The thousand years old statues will become the witness.
He mentions that we considered you as our guests and respected you. However, you destroyed the temples, killed our people, burnt our houses. Why did you destroy the temples of Somnath and Mathura? What was wrong that Shiva and Krishna did to you?
The new age Sanatan dharma will not keep quiet. It will ask the justice and the tyrants like Aurangzeb will be asked for his atrocities. You will have to answer all questions and once again the shout of “Har Har Mahadev” will be there on the banks of Ganga.
Many illiterate people questioned Manoj Muntashir for writing the lines “वनवास राम जी को बाबर ने क्यूँ दिया था” / “vanvaas ram ji ko babar ne kyun diya tha“. Those who ask this question, I tell them that they are illiterate and do not understand the poetic literature or do not know the history.
The Babri Masjid was built on the Ram Janma Bhoomi, the place in Ayodhya where Lord Ram was born. Ideally, there should have been a temple of Lord Ram. However, Babar destroyed it and built a mosque over it. For 1300 years, the mosque stood at the place where Ram was born. This Manoj Muntashir criticized and Babar gave Lord Ram exile once again.
Summary of “Patthar Gawahi Denge”
The poem Patthar Gawahi Denge is a question of society. It is a question of Mughal and Muslim rulers who ruled over India. Were they real rulers? Whether they did betray the people of India? What good did the Muslim rule give India? In the name of love among others and respect for all religions, they kept on breaking the temples and building mosques.
