Footage has emerged of students of an Indian school India's Karnataka re-enacting the demolition of the Babri mosque by Hindu extremists.

Prime witness in Babri Mosque demolition recalls horror


Jubilant students tear the poster down to great joy of the onlookers.


The poster of the mosque is then replaced by one of a Hindu temple.


The extremist Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) flag can be seen brandished in the backdrop.


It is believed that RSS leader Kalladka Bhat owns the school question.


Srivasta said there would be serious consequences for politicising the children.

"This is the future of education in India when the RSS-BJP takeover of society is complete, This is why it's our duty to resist," he wrote.

Violent protests broke out in India this year after the country's top court handed out a controversial judgement in the 1992 mosque demolition case.
