‘He Has Always Been ANTI-RAM’: Hanumangarhi Priest On Digvijaya’s Ram Lalla Idol Remark

Ayodhya: Congress veteran leader Digvijaya Singh’s fresh statement has erupted in a new controversy that has hurt the sentiments of the people ahead of the grand Pran Pratishtha ceremony of the Ram Temple. He stated that Ram Lalla’s idol seated in the temple does not look like a child. Reacting to the controversial remark, Hanumangarhi temple priest Mahant Raju Das stated on Friday that Singh has always been anti-Ram and found faults in everything.

“All the idols will remain there only. Because the idol was in ‘Bal Swaroop’ (toddler form), people faced difficulty in ‘Darshan’. So the trust tried to give it magnificence. The main issue was the Janmabhoomi. There is no scarcity of temples in Ayodhya. I want to tell people like Digvijaya Singh, who tried to divide society on the basis of caste, to come to Ayodhya and look at the temples… There are Ram Janaki temples by kings and rulers from all castes… He (Digvijaya Singh) has always been anti-Ram. He has been finding faults in everything since the beginning..,” Raju Das said.
