Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on January 11 slammed the Congress party for deciding not to attend the consecration ceremony of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya.
Congress Turns Down Ram Temple Consecration Ceremony Invite
The consecration ceremony of the Ram Temple will be held on January 22. CM Sarma said that the Congress “missed the opportunity for atonement” by deciding not to attend the consecration ceremony of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya.
“Congress had missed a significant opportunity to atone for its sins. VHP gave Congress a golden opportunity to reduce its sins by extending their leadership an invitation to attend the Shri Ram Mandir Pran Pratishtha Mahotsava,” he added.
The Congress had labeled the inauguration of Ram Temple as an “RSS/BJP event”. “Religion is a personal matter. But the RSS/BJP have long made a political project of the temple in Ayodhya. The inauguration of the incomplete temple by the leaders of the BJP and the RSS has been obviously brought forward for electoral gain,” read a statement.
