Senior Congress leader and former Haryana chief Minister on Sunday said the Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid land dispute is before the Supreme Court and if a Ram temple is built in Ayodhya, he too will light a 'deepak' (lamp) there.
Asked about the issue, he said, "If a Ram temple is built there, I will also go to light an earthen lamp."
Later, reacting to Hooda's comments, BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said, "Congress is talking about Ram temple but their own leader Shashi Tharoor has given a statement a few days back suggesting about 'bad Hindu' and 'good Hindu'. Hooda is saying that he will go and light a lamp if Ram temple is built. I would say please do not be a 'bad Hindu'."
