‘Don’t Need Invitation To Visit Ayodhya, Ram Not Property Of One Party’: Uddhav Thackeray On Attending Temple Inauguration

Published

on

Mumbai: Former Maharashtra CM & Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray mentioned on Saturday that he has not yet been formally invited to the consecration ceremony of the Lord Ram temple in Ayodhya on January 22. However, he said that a formal invitation is not necessary for him, as Lord Ram belongs to everyone, and he intends to visit the temple town in Uttar Pradesh whenever he deems fit.

The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust has been extending invitations to numerous notable figures and political leaders from across the country for the grand event.

Bal Thackeray’s voting right was snatched for advocating Ram temple: Uddhav

Speaking to reporters here, Thackeray stated that Shiv Sena had engaged in a prolonged struggle for the Ram Janmabhoomi movement. He went on to mention that his father and the founder of Sena, Bal Thackeray, had his voting rights “snatched away” as a consequence of campaigning for the Ram Temple and Hindutva during a bypoll.”I have not received any invitation yet and I don’t need one to visit Ayodhya as Ram Lalla belongs to everyone. Whenever I feel like it, I will go. Shiv Sena had contributed a lot to the Ram temple movement,” Uddhav Thackeray said.

Thackeray reminisced about his visit to Ayodhya during his tenure as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra.

Lord Ram not property of single party: Uddhav

In an apparent jibe at the BJP, Thackeray said, “I only expect that political event shouldn’t be made out of it (the consecration ceremony). Lord Ram is not the property of any single party. This is the matter of faith for crores of people”.

He also mentioned that the construction of the Ram temple was made possible by the Supreme Court’s decision, and the Central government played no role in it.

Shiv Sena (UBT) spokesperson Sanjay Raut asserted that among the “top ten” individuals accused of demolishing the Babri mosque in 1992, Shiv Sainiks, including Bal Thackeray, are prominent. He claimed that a total of 109 Shiv Sainiks from Maharashtra are listed as accused in the demolition case.

The consecration ceremony is anticipated to be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, and over 6,000 individuals.

Mumbai: The Mumbai-Delhi High Court has strongly criticized Red Chillies Entertainment Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan and others in the defamation case against NCB Zonal Director IRS officer Sameer Wankhede and said that artistic freedom does not mean mocking a person. After this, the High Court has ordered that the controversial footage related to Sameer Wankhede be removed from the controversial Netflix series The Bads of Bollywood. Sameer Wankhede had filed a petition in the High Court and pleaded that his character has been killed in The Bads of Bollywood and this series has been made to target him. The purpose is to humiliate and mock Sameer Wankhede. After watching some parts of this series, the High Court has ordered the removal of the controversial parts from the film.

Sameer Wankhede’s lawyer had told the court that the character portrayed in the film is a comparison to Sameer Wankhede and that this series has been created with the intention of tarnishing Wankhede’s image. The Bads of Bollywood is malicious, therefore, the above-mentioned controversial scenes and objectionable dialogues should be deleted from the series, on which the court has issued an order to delete the controversial and objectionable content and content. Earlier, while hearing Sameer Wankhede’s petition, the court had sent notices to Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies, Netflix, Meta, and social media platforms and directed them to file a response. To this, Red Chillies had called the film and series a drama and made it clear that it had nothing to do with the facts. However, despite this, the Delhi High Court inquired whether a film drama does not mean that someone’s character is killed and said this, it reprimanded Shah Rukh Khan and the film company. Sameer Wankhede tried to prove through his argument that the character portrayed in the film resembles Sameer Wankhede and that this character has been portrayed in a negative way to target him and in this, an attempt has been made to make fun of Sameer Wankhede through this character, which has humiliated Wankhede, which the court has accepted and issued a directive to delete the objectionable and controversial content. This is a big success for Sameer Wankhede, while Shah Rukh Khan has suffered a huge setback.
