‘BJP Will Announce Lord Ram As Election Candidate’: Sanjay Raut Takes A Dig At Centre Ahead Of Ram Janmabhoomi Temple Inauguration

Published

on

Mumbai: Sanjay Raut, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP, took a sarcastic dig at the BJP ahead of the grand event of the Ram Janmabhoomi temple inauguration in Ayodhya. Raut criticised the BJP, suggesting that their next move might be declaring Lord Ram as their election candidate.

“Now, the only thing left is that the BJP will announce that Lord Ram will be their candidate for the elections. So much politics is being done in the name of Lord Ram,” said Raut while taking a jibe at the centre. He expressed concern over the perceived politicisation of Lord Ram’s name. His remarks were also regarding his party’s role in the Babri Masjid demolition.

Shiv Sena’s Claim On Babri Masjid Demolition

Earlier on Wednesday, Raut claimed responsibility for the Babri Masjid demolition, asserting it was Shiv Sena workers, not the BJP or Sangh Parivar, who were behind it. Raut said the Kothari brothers (Ram and Sharad, shot dead by the police for their role in the demolition) were Shiv Sainiks. He referenced statements made by the then vice president of the BJP, Sundersinh Bhandari.

Raut accused the BJP of having a selective historical perspective, claiming that, for them, history seemingly began in 2014. He sarcastically remarked, “For the BJP, history starts in 2014.” He alleged that Sangh Parivar had no involvement in crucial historical events.

Despite his party chief Uddhav Thackeray not being invited, Raut emphasized that the Ram Mandir belonged to all Hindus. He highlighted Shiv Sena’s role in the Ram Janambhoomi movement and the presence of its leaders in Ayodhya.

Political Implications Within MVA

Raut’s statements pose potential embarrassment to Congress and NCP, allies in the Maha Vikas Aghadi. These remarks revealed ideological fault lines, especially on the eve of Congress’ foundation day rally which took place on December 28.

BJP Mumbai’s Preparations Ahead Of Mega Event

City BJP president Ashish Shelar rejected Raut’s claims, asserting the active participation of Sangh Parivar “karyakartas” in the Ram Janambhoomi movement and countering the accusations against the BJP. The BJP in the city is planning a “Deepotsav” (Lamps lighting ceremony) in at least 10,000 homes in each BMC ward of Mumbai. Special trains are arranged to take devotees to Ayodhya for the temple inauguration on January 22.

Animal markets will remain open for sacrifice, Gauseva Aayog withdraws controversial order

Published

Mumbai: The Mumbai GauSeva Ayog has withdrawn its controversial order to keep cattle markets closed from June 3 to June 8 until Eid-ul-Adha. It has only said that it should be ensured that there is no slaughter of prohibited animals during the sacrifice. After a meeting of Muslim representatives along with Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, the Chief Minister had issued an order to withdraw the circular, after which the Gau Seva Ayog has withdrawn its controversial circular and order. This circular had said that animal markets in all districts of the state should be closed till June 8 to prohibit cow slaughter on Eid-ul-Adha. Muslims opposed this and during the meeting of Muslim representatives, the Chief Minister had announced the withdrawal of this order. Therefore, the GauSeva Ayog has officially withdrawn the circular and instead issued a new circular, which has lifted the ban on animal markets. Along with this, strict implementation of the cow slaughter law has also been demanded.

The state government is responsible for implementing the cow slaughter law and the police and administration are ready for it, but after the GauSeva Aayog issued such a controversial circular, Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Rais Sheikh had declared it illegal and said that the circular issued is completely illegal and controversial, while the Aayog has no authority to issue orders, it can only make recommendations. In such a situation, after the order of the Chief Minister, now animal markets will continue during the sacrifice period and there is no ban on the market of buffaloes including goats, therefore Muslims have been appealed not to pay attention to rumors.

Deonar Slaughterhouse General Manager Kaleem Pathan also said that the Deonar Goat Market will continue and the order issued by the Gau Seva Aayog has been withdrawn, so the public should not pay attention to rumors about the Deonar Goat Market. He said that along with the facilities in the Goat Market in Deonar, arrangements have been made for the convenience of buyers. Along with stalls, other facilities are also available here. He said that more than 150,000 goats have arrived in the Deonar Goat Market and along with this, more than 80,000 goats are left.
