Congress leader Sachin Pilot on Wednesday hit out at the BJP, saying the party taking political advantage of the Ram temple was “wrong”.
Pilot’s remark comes on a day when the Congress announced that party chief Mallikarjun Kharge, Sonia Gandhi and Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury have “respectfully declined” the invitation to attend the Ram temple consecration ceremony, alleging that it has been made into a “political project” by the BJP and the RSS for “electoral gain”.
“The matter of faith, religion and worship is personal. We all believe in Lord Ram and will continue to do so, but I consider it wrong how BJP wants to take advantage of it,” Pilot told reporters.
