In recent times, the Hazratbal shrine was again in the media attention worldwide and become the epicentre of tension between Kashmiri Muslims and the army when a group of about 40 militants entered the shrine in October 1993. After the militants occupied the shrine, the Indian Army surrounded it to fish the armed occupants out. But the Army's siege of the holiest Muslim shrine soon ignited public outrage. As the mosque crisis deepened, there were massive public demonstrations. The cordon was lifted after a few days to provide a safe passage to the militants.
A few years ago, Vishwa Hindu Parishad stirred up a hornet’s nest with its rhetoric that the holy relic preserved there is actually that of Nimnath Baba. According to BJP leader Vinay Katiyar, Nimnath Baba is a dharmaguru or religion leader of the Hindus and was settled in Mecca. There was sharp reaction in the Valley to Katiyar’s claim as it was seen as a deliberate attempt to hurt the feelings of Kashmiri Muslims.
The present state government has worked out a prestigious plan aimed at beautification of the shrine area, which on completion will be a prototype of the Taj Mahal. After all, the pristine precincts of Hazratbal are no less than the taj of Srinagar.
