RSS chief demands law for Ram Mandir construction in Ayodhya
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat said the government should clear the path for construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya. In his annual Vijayadashmi address in Nagpur, he said the temple construction should be done through an appropriate and requisite law. Asserting it's necessary from the "self-esteem point of view", he said it'll pave way for an atmosphere of goodwill and oneness.
Lord Rama is personification of life energy of nation: Bhagwat
The Sangh has been associated with sentiments of crores of countrymen in the efforts for construction of the temple at the birthplace of Lord Rama, who is the personification of the life energy of the nation, Bhagwat said. "The place of janmabhoomi is yet to be allocated...although all kinds of evidence have affirmed that there was a temple at that place," he said.
Bhagwat says there is a game plan to stall judgement
There is an obvious game plan of a few elements to stall the judgment by presenting various newer interventions in the judicial process, Bhagwat said, adding that it is nobody's interest to test the patience of society without any reason.
Politics delaying the construction of Ram Mandir: Bhagwat
"This matter of national interest is being obstructed by some fundamentalist elements and forces that play communal politics for selfish gains. Politics is delaying the construction of Ram Mandir," Bhagwat said. Despite such machinations, the decision on ownership of the land should be expedited and the government should clear the path for the construction of the "grand temple through an appropriate and requisite law".
