“The Congress is in a fix over attending Ram Mandir inauguration in Ayodhya. Its prospects will suffer both ways, if its leaders attend the inauguration or if they don’t,” Union Minister Pralhad Joshi said in Hubballi on Sunday.
“We have cordially invited some Congress leaders, including Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, to the inauguration. But the Congress is not sure whether they should attend it. If they attend, they tend to lose minority votes and if they do not come, they will lose the votes of the majority,” Mr. Joshi told journalists.
“It is the same party that had questioned the existence of Lord Ram for electoral gains. Now, it is suffering from confusion. We are not playing politics over the issue. Attending the Ram Mandir inaugurations is not playing politics,” he said.
