Jind, 15th Jan. Mohan Bhagwat, the chief of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, stated on Sunday that the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya is the fulfillment of a long cherished dream. He also referred to the demolished Babri mosque as a ‘symbol of slavery’.

In an apparent mention of the Babri Masjid, which was torn down by “kar sevaks” in December 1992, Bhagwat stated, “The symbol of slavery was demolished in Ayodhya, but no harm was done to any other mosque in the area. Kar sevaks did not engage in any riots.” He made these remarks during his address after a three-day visit to the region.

Ram Mandir Pran Pratishtha ceremony is being organised in Ayodhya on 22 January.

The RSS chief said, “It is a joy to have the temple built. But there is still a lot of work to be done and it has to be kept in mind that the struggle due to which this dream is being fulfilled should continue in the future also so that the destination is achieved.”

Emphasizing the need to work more quickly to organise and unite the society, Bhagwat said that when the entire nation stands together, it will be able to remove all the evils of the world and become a ‘Vishwa Guru’.

Bhagwat said that most of the cultures of the world disappeared with time but Hindu culture has been resilient and maintained its identity despite facing all kinds of ups and downs.

He said, “Despite having so many languages, gods and goddesses, diverse religions, every person in India from North to South and from East to West believes that we have to live in such a way that the world learns to live by watching it.”
