‘They Opposed Pran-Pratishtha…’: PM Modi Slams Congress Over Ram Temple

Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the Congress during a massive rally in Rajasthan’s Pushkar, ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha election. He accused the Congress of opposing the Pran Pratishtha ceremony of the Ayodhya Ram Temple to such an extent that they expelled a party member who attended the event.
