RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat asks govt to bring ordinance for Ram Mandir construction

The statement of the Rashtriya Swayam Sewak chief and the fountain head of the Bhartiya Janta Party Mohan Bhagwat in his significant Vijay Dashmi speech that the government should come out with an ordinance to fulfill its long pending demand to construct the Ram Temple and that it will help in reducing the communal riots in the country is being allegedly seen and analysed as yet another attempt by the saffron party to polarise the Hindu majority votes right at the time when elections to the five states are likely to take place next month and the general elections are just 8/ nine months ahead.

Addressing the swayam sewaks the RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat has unambiguously said that now enough is enough and the Ram Temple needs to be build at all costs and with the support of the law which the BJP led NDA government should enact by bringing an ordinance on this specific issue.

Mohan Bhagwat said Ram Temple is a protracted demand and it should be built now, through the government’s ordinance. The Mandir would have been built by now but the politics and politicians delayed it intentionally. Had the issue been not involved in politics Mandir would have been constructed by now n with concensus.

The government should now bring a legislation/ ordinance and construct the Ram Temple. The RSS chief said : everybody know that the matter is in the court and will be decided by the court only but bringing an ordinance by the government is the only substitute to this long pending issue. The temple will be contructed but with the government’s law .

The renowned legal expert and the former law minister in BJP Dr. Subramaniam Swamy fully backed the RSS chief’s statement saying that it’s not the court but the ordinance that will help resolve the issue and temple contructed in Ayodhya as matter of faiths are decided through laws not courts and there is nothing wrong in what Bhagwat said. It’s the best constitutional remedy, he added.

However, the first to criticize the statement of the RSS chief was the All India Muslim Personal Law Board as senior advocate Jafaryab Jilani said that he is not at all surprised over the statement of Mr. Bhagwat asking the government to bring an ordinance on Ram Mandir construction.

This is an old ploy of the saffron party leaders to raise this sensitive issue during elections in order to polarise the majority community votes.

Now, since the matter of Ram Mandir is subjudice and the ministers of the ruling party can’t speak on this complex issue so they have given the responsibility to the RSS chief to raise the issue on their behalf n talk about ordinance on Ram temple.

It’s nothing but a political ploy to misguide the electorates on the Ram Mandir issue especially when the elections are round the corner added Jafaryab Jilani ALIMPLB.

Political analysts say that the controvertial issue of Rafale Jet fighter deal with France and the offset contract to Anil Ambani, banking frauds, inflation, increasing petro products hike and agrarian crisis etc have brought the saffron party in the defensive position and as such the Ram Mandir issue is a best alternative to misguide the electorates of the country and dominate over these issues.

And this has been amply proved in the past when the saffron party banking on majoritarianism has succeeded in the elections of twenty states held between 2013 n 2018. What’s your take friends?
