The inscription is said to have been found among the debris of the Babri mosque in Ayodhya when a group of Hindu rioters demolished the mosque in 1992 . Hindu activists had long claimed that Muslim rulers had constructed the mosque after destroying a Hindu temple marking the birthplace of the Hindu deity Rama ( an incarnation of Vishnu ) . Those who believe that a temple existed at the Babri mosque site consider the inscription as evidence of their claim , identifying the king as the 12th century Gahadavala king Govindachandra
