On the occasion of Ram Navami, considered auspicious by many, those engaged in the politics of hatred set fire to Bihar Sharif’s Azizia Library. As many as 4,500 books on Islamic literature and divinity had been stored in this 110-year-old library. Most, if not all, have been destroyed.
The Imam of the Azizia Madrasa and the principal of the Azizia Library speaks on how communal violence has taken away a chunk of history.
