While stating that a nation ought not to be built along religious lines, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray on Saturday lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi by remarking that the construction of the Ram Temple would not have been possible without Mr. Modi.
Mr. Raj Thackeray, who was speaking after a meeting of his party leaders and office-bearers in Mumbai, had recently declared his unconditional support for the Bharatiya Janata Party and Mr. Modi.
“One thing is certain, had he [PM Modi] not been there, despite the SC clearing the decks for the temple, then the Ram Mandir would never have been built,” the MNS chief said, praising the PM for having completed a task that had been hanging fire since 1992.
