"Let's Not Talk Of Ravan Today": Himanta Biswa Sarma's Swipe At Rahul Gandhi | Read

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma today responded with a Ramayan reference when a reporter asked why Congress's Rahul Gandhi was not allowed to enter a temple in the state. The reference though, was of Ravan, the 10-headed demon king the BJP has been comparing the Congress to since its three top leaders declined the invite to join the temple inauguration in Ayodhya which took place today, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. "Why are you talking of Ravan?" Mr Sarma replied. "At least talk about Ram today? After 500 years, today is a good day to talk about Ram. Today at least let us not talk of Ravan," he added.
