Devi Din Pandey Killed 700 soldies who wants to capture Ram janmabhoomi

The first is the importance of numbers. Numbers appear to be important here not only for their suggestion of statistical accuracy and historical precision: "76" (or "77" or "79" as the case may be) battles fought for the 'liberation' of the RIB; the 700 soldiers of Babar's army that Devi Din Pandey accounted for, with his sword alone and in the face of a constant rain of bullets, in just three hours (which, according to the Hindu account, Babar himself testifies); and, further, of Devi Din's inevitable offering of his own life in this process: "On 9 June, 1528 AD, at 2pm, Pandit Devi Din Pandey breathed his last". The represent the 'excess' that characterise all nationalist nan-atives. Hence Devi Din"I Pandey's "700" victims in a span of "3 hours"; or the 174,000 Hindu lives sacrificed before Mir Baqi was able to bring down the temple; or the "hundreds" of monkeys who attacked the Mughal camp one day during the same period, engaged the soldiers in battle -for several hours, and silenced their guns and

cannons; or the 10,000 tong-wielding (chimrad&n$ sudhus, who worsted Aurangzeb's army "with their tongs alone"; or, to take a non-numerical example, the "indescribably beautiful" Rani Jairaj Kumari, who formed a band of several hundred (or several thousand) women guerillas to attack the Ram Janmabhumi on numerous occasions through the reigns of Babar, Humayun and Akbar.
