The BJP on Tuesday reacted sharply to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s remarks that the consecration of the Ram Temple of Ayodhya was being made into a “BJP event”. It stated that the faith of Hindus cannot be “manipulated” and that people could see through “his [Mr. Gandhi’s] atrocious lies”.
Addressing a press conference at the BJP’s national headquarters in New Delhi, Union Minister Rajeev Chandrashekhar said that “Ram Temple was a deeply felt emotion by Hindus in every corner of the country.”
“Rahul Gandhi lives in a la-la world. He thinks everything he says is predicated on nobody understanding the truth and he can get away with these atrocious lies. He tried so in 2014 and 2019 and is trying again. The people of India are wise enough. They understand the truth and what his politics is about,” he said.
