SP, Congress will run bulldozer over Ram Temple if voted to power, says PM Modi in U.P.’s Barabanki

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said the Congress and the Samajwadi Party (SP) will run a bulldozer over the Ram temple in Ayodhya if elected to power, adding that the Opposition should take tuitions from Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath where to run bulldozers.

Mr. Modi accused the Opposition of trying to create instability in the country and said it will collapse like a pack of cards after the election results.

“These parties (Congress and SP) disrespected Ram Lalla since decades and when after 500 years, the dream of a grand Ram Temple is fulfilled in Ayodhya, they rejected the invitation for the consecration ceremony. A senior SP leader said on the day of Ram Navami that the Ram temple is useless. The Congress is preparing to overturn the Supreme Court’s decision on Ram Temple. For these people, only grabbing power and their family matters. If the SP and Congress come to power, they will send Ram Lalla back to the tent and bulldoze the temple,” Mr. Modi said at a rally in Barabanki.
