During a rally in Bastar, Chhattisgarh, Prime Minister Narendra Modi criticized the Congress and INDIA alliance regarding their stance on the construction of the Ram temple. He highlighted their alleged opposition to the temple's construction and accused the Congress of prioritizing appeasement over national interests.
"The dream came true after 500 years. It is natural for people of Chhattisgarh to be happy, as it is Lord Ram's maternal grandparents house. But Congress and INDI alliance are angry with the construction of Ram Mandir," the prime minister said at a rally in Chhattisgarh's Bastar.
"The royal family of Congress rejected the invite for Ram Mandir's 'Pran Pratishtha'. The Congress leaders who termed this decision wrong, were removed from the party. It shows that Congress can cross any limit for appeasement," he added.
Furthermore, he criticized the Congress for fostering corruption during its regime, contrasting it with his government's efforts to curb corruption since coming to power in 2014.
