In this scientific age still people believe proofless stories.
No proof at all in any form to support Ramayana story.
Though in the story of so said Ramayan, Ram's father king Dasharatha married 4wives,
where No so called religion permits to marry more than 1. This seems to be Dasharatha may be Muslim.
His children might be Muslims.
So naturally all followers of Ram should follow ISLAM.
