Senior Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday said that the party would construct a grand temple dedicated to the goddess Sita in Bihar’s Sitamarhi district. Mr. Shah was addressing an electoral meeting in Sitamarhi to back a National Democratic Alliance candidate.
The Home Minister also asserted that Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) “belongs to India and the country will take it back at any cost”.
“We, the BJP, don’t get scared of the vote bank. Prime Minister Modi has built the Ram temple in Ayodhya and now the work that is left is to build a great memorial at the birthplace of Maa Sita,” Mr. Shah said while addressing a public meeting in Sitamarhi. “Those who kept themselves away from Ram temple can’t do this, but if someone can build a temple as ideal as the life of mother Sita, he is Narendra Modi, the BJP,” he further said.
