The Mughals were a bunch of freeloading bastards who were even worse than the British, they were all colonialist SOB's too.
But notice the comments on the article from Muslims and secularists, so many blatant lies are being repeated there, for example this:

Aurangzeb who ascended the throne in the last days of the mughal empire attempted many reforms.
He banned Sati, widow immolation on husband%u2019s pyre, abolished cultivation of opium, gambling, alcohol and prostitution.
He also abolished rahdari (inland transport duty) and octroi.
Surprisingly he also banned cow slaughter.
However he re-imposed the Jaziya tax that had been cancelled a hundred years ago.
He destroyed some temples and closed down others. But he gave money to restore other temples and gave running expenses to still others.
He did not interfere with the celebration of private religious Hindu worship, or the teaching of religion by Hindu priests.
Personally he was brave and industrious and lived a life of simplicity and purity.
The well-known poet Iqbal called him the %u201Cfirst exponent of Muslim nationalism in the Indian sub-continent.%u201D

asshole is repeating blatant lies, he never banned cow slaughter and wanted them to be slaughtered in destroyed mandirs so that Hindus wouldn't rebuild them.
He never gave any money to restore mandirs.
He interfered quite blatantly in Hindu religious practices, for example he banned music and closed down schools where people were being taught by Brahmins.
Traitors like the above poster don't have the guts to debate with us and post rubbish in front of people with no knowledge since they can get away with it, notice that all the Muslims and seculars who came on here always did the "hoot and scoot" act because they know they will be exposed for everyone to see.
