INDIA bloc parties rejected Ram temple 'Pran Pratishtha' invite; insulted Ram Lalla: PM Modi

 "INDIA bloc parties have always hated the construction of the Ram Temple. They rejected Ram temple 'Pran Pratishtha' invite and insulted Ram Lalla. Those from their party who attended the ceremony were suspended from the party for 6 years. Congress is so deep into appeasement politics that they will never be able to come out of it. Congress' manifesto appears to be that of Muslim League's not their own. Congress and SP also protesting against CAA. If India will not give citizenship to the persecuted minorities from neighbouring countries, then who will?," PM Modi said today.
