A clash between UP Congress leaders visited Ayodhya on Monday with devotees in Ayodhya. During this, some people were seen breaking the Congress flag outside the Ram temple. Many leaders including state president Ajay Rai, UP Congress in-charge Avinash Pandey, and MP Deepender Hooda were included in the Congress delegation. The reason for the dispute is said to be flag waving.
How did it unfold?
According to the information, the Congressmen had entered the temple premises waving the party flag. A clash arose when devotees appealed not to wave the flag. Avinash Pandey who is incharge of Uttar Pradesh has given a strong reaction to the misbehavior of the Congress worker.
Let us tell you that Congress State President Ajay Rai and Congress Legislature Party leader Aradhana Mishra have reached Ayodhya. Before reaching Ayodhya, hundreds of Congressmen under the leadership of AICC member Dayanand Shukla gave a grand welcome at the Ranimau intersection. Dayanand Shukla welcomed both the leaders with garlands and Angvastra.
Turning down the invitation, the Congress had said the BJP and RSS i.e. its ideological mentor made the Ayodhya temple their “political project”. “The inauguration of the incomplete temple by the leaders of the BJP and the RSS has been brought forward for electoral gain,” it said in a statement.
Statement over Rejecting the Invitation
Later Supriya Shrinate Congress Spokesperson said,” Visiting Ayodhya has been a tradition in her family. She also said Lord Ram’s dream will remain unfulfilled until the country is facing social and economic problems. She added “I am from Poorvanchal, I visit Hanuman Garhi.
We wish the Ram Rajya came to this country. What is that Ram Rajya? If situations of unemployment, injustice, inflation, and economic disparity persist in the country, the dream of Lord Ram is incomplete… Generations of my family have been visiting Ayodhya, and all my future generations will visit too,” she said.
Later the state president said that the public has become disillusioned with the BJP. Prices continue to rise. The youth are not able to get employment. BJP wants to divert public attention from inflation and unemployment in the name of temple, but this time the public is not going to fall into the trap of BJP leaders.
Ajay Rai, excited after seeing the Congress workers, said that all the workers should start preparing for the Lok Sabha elections with full hard work and honesty. This time the public has made up its mind to bring the Congress government.
UP Congress in-charge Avinash Pandey said that we condemn the fact that some people wanted to create unrest by linking religion with politics. Maybe some people wanted to do this. We had come only to pray, there was no instruction from the Congress party on this.
Although there is still time for the inauguration of Ram Temple, political discussions on this issue are already intense.
