The All India Congress Committee leader, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, is facing huge condemnation for her statement on the Foundation Ram temple. Vadra had said the foundation laying ceremony of the Ram Temple at the controversial site in Ayodhya on August 5, 2020 should become a symbol of national unity.

Congress leader’s endorsement of a political function by India’s Hindutva brigade at a disputed site has prompted many to slam the Congress for its fake definition of secularism. The Congress leader through her Twitter handle wrote, “Tomorrow, on 5th August 2020, “Bhumipujan” of Ram Temple is being held. Let Lord Ram shower his blessing so that this function becomes a celebration of National unity, fraternity and cultural affinity”.

“The World, particularly the Indian sub-continent, has a deep-rooted and indelible cultural imprint of the epic – Ramayana. From times immemorial, Lord Ram, Mata Sita and the legendary tale of the Ramayana is luminously etched in our cultural, spiritual and religious memory. The Indian psyche has always been inspired and encapsulated the spirit of Dharma, righteousness, duty, sacrifice, compassion, love, bravery and service, that runs through Ramayana. From North to South, from East to West, the Ramkatha has manifested itself in immeasurable forms. As the Lord has infinite incarnations, Ramkatha has infinite forms”, the message reads. “Lord Ram has always been a binding thread for humanity and human good in India’s ethos from times immemorial. Lord Ram symbolises sacrifice as also shelter. Ram belongs both to Sabri as also to Sugriv. Ram belong to Valmiki as also to Bhasa. Ram belongs to Kamban as also to Ezhuthachan. Ram belongs to Kabir, to Tulsidas and to Raidas. Ram personifies each one of us. Mahatma Gandhi’s “Rahgupati Raghav Raja Ram” bestows divine wisdom and equanimity. Waris Ali Shah says, “Rab is Ram”, Vadra said in her message.

No sooner did Priyanka share her statements, she began to face public criticism with many dubbing her remarks as ‘soft bigotry.’ AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi tweeted, “Glad that they are not pretending anymore. It’s okay if they want to embrace this extremist ideology of Hindutva but why all this hollow talk about brotherhood? Don’t be shy, please be proud of your party’s contributions to the movement that demolished our Babri Masjid".
