Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing critique against members of the INDIA bloc, accusing them of deriding Sanatan Dharma and showing disrespect towards the Ram temple.
In his address, he pointed out that these individuals had declined the invitation to attend the inauguration of the Ram temple.
"These individuals (referring to Congress and SP) have stooped lower than Muslims. At least Muslims continued to fight for the mosque, even in the Supreme Court until they lost the case. But these people chose to distance themselves from the temple," he remarked.
The Prime Minister commended the gesture of one of the Babri plaintiffs who attended the opening ceremony of the Ram temple despite having opposed it in the past.
Furthermore, Modi criticized the opposition for condemning his visit to the underwater Dwarka.
"Archaeologists have already substantiated that the primary Dwarka lies beneath the sea. During my visit, I paid homage to Lord Krishna by placing a peacock feather there. However, the Congress scion (Rahul Gandhi) has dismissed the significance of worshipping anything submerged under the sea. He is essentially denying the existence of the underwater Dwarka," Modi asserted.
