‘Ramjanmabhoomi’ means the birthplace of Lord Rama who is the reincarnation of Lord Vishnu. The birth place of Lord Rama is situated in Ayodhya in the state of Uttar Pradesh which makes Ayodhya one of most sacred places for Hindus. In 1528, Babar who had invaded India, got the Ram temple demolished and built a mosque like structure over it. Since then, Hindus have been trying to get this place back and build a Ram temple on it. Many Hindus sacrificed their lives for this cause. In recent times, the movement to build a Ram temple was launched in mid-1980s.
