Ram Temple Movement

Oblivious of Congress's history and the part played by it in the Ram Janmabhoomi movement, both obtrusively and unobtrusively, the current leadership of the Grand Old Party has withdrawn into a self-glorifying cocoon.

Amid frenetic preparations for the grand consecration ceremony at the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, a Madhya Pradesh plan to develop a Ram pilgrimage circuit has seen some movement after being on the back burner for as long as 16 years.

Ahead of the Ram temple consecration ceremony here, the movement of trains will be affected from January 16 to 22 due to the doubling of tracks and electrification being done on top priority, a senior Railways official said on Monday.

The Ayodhya movement was an awareness campaign not just for a temple but to ensure "justice with all and appeasement of none", said Union minister Nitin Gadkari on Sunday and stressed that the history of Hindutva is the history of "our" country.

The under-construction Ram temple complex in Ayodhya will be 'atmanirbhar' in its own way with sewage and water treatment plants, and it will also have facilities to ease the movement of the elderly and the specially-abled, officials said today.

BJP veteran LK Advani, who turned the sporadic demands for a Ram temple at Ayodhya into a mass movement from the late 1980s, today welcomed the Supreme Court's landmark verdict, saying he stands "vindicated".

Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya Sunday disapproved of the Shiv Sena's push for constructing a Ram temple, saying the party had no role in the temple movement.

Calling the construction of the temple as her "dream", Uma Bharti told ANI, "I have actively participated in Ram Janambhoomi Andolan. Hearing of a case is also underway in connection with it, on me and LK Advani Ji, and I am proud of it. The construction of Ram Temple is my dream and whatever initiative is required from my end I am ready for it."
