A familiar face for the Congress on television, Gourav Vallabh on Thursday joined the list of leaders leaving the party for the BJP. While the fact that he is not a grass-root leader or an organisational heavyweight means his exit will hurt the Congress more in terms of optics, it’s the issues that he flagged which will cause the party discomfort.
The Samajwadi Party (SP) has fielded 31-year-old Shreya Verma, the granddaughter of the party’s prominent Kurmi leader late Beni Prasad Verma, from the Gonda seat in Uttar Pradesh for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
Taking upon himself the task of talking about hosh (reason) in a moment of josh (excitement), RSS Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagat on Monday said after the consecration of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya that it was the time to end disputes and take everyone along.
Ahead of the consecration ceremony of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya on January 22, grand preparations are continuing at the Temple where RSS worker Anil Mishra and his wife Usha have been performing the rituals as “Pradhan Yajman” (main hosts) leading up to the event.
The BJP’s Faizabad MP, Lallu Singh, was one of the key faces of the Ram Mandir movement and among the 32 accused in the Babri Masjid demolition case. As Ayodhya gears up for the consecration of the Ram Temple on January 22, Singh, under whose constituency the temple town falls, speaks to The Indian Express on what the temple represents, the Ram janmabhoomi movement, and if the BJP will take up the cause of other temples. Excerpts:
BEATING the Ayodhya consecration by five days, Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik willroll out his own temple gambit on Wednesday. The heritage corridor or Parikrama Prakalpa around the Puri Jagannath Temple is a project that the BJD government launched five years ago, and promoted with much fanfare — and as elections come around, this may be the biggest ace up its sleeve against its principal opposition in state politics, the BJP.
A couple of months before the Congress officially refused to attend the consecration ceremony of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya on January 22, the party’s Madhya Pradesh chief ministerial candidate Kamal Nath told The Indian Express in November that Rajiv Gandhi was the one to get the locks of the Babri Masjid opened in the mid-1980s. This sounded like pandering to Hindus and revealed the inability of the party to speak in one voice on the Ram temple question. However, this confusion isn’t new.
The Sangh Parivar is going all out to see that more than one lakh people from 28 states and eight Union Territories (UTs) board 44 special trains to reach Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh between January 27 and February 22 to visit the Ram Temple.
