Ahmedabad, 24th Jan. Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Tuesday that the consecration ceremony held at the newly constructed Ram temple in Ayodhya has successfully “stitched a deep wound” inflicted during the reign of Mughal ruler Babur almost five centuries ago.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi did remarkable work by performing `Pran Pratishtha’ at the Ram temple in Ayodhya. Devotees of Lord Ram across the world have been waiting for this moment for the last 500 years. They have been asking when Lord Ram will be shifted to a grand temple from that tent. This event has now stitched that deep wound which we got in our heart during Babur’s era,” said Shah in his speech.
Previous governments prior to 2014 were afraid of respecting the country’s culture, religion and languages, he claimed.
“Aurangzeb destroyed the Kashi Vishwanath temple. After all these years, it was Modi who rebuilt it and constructed a corridor there. Babur destroyed the Ram temple in Ayodhya. Now, a Ram temple has been built there and PM Modi performed Pran Pratishtha amid chants of Jay Shree Ram,” said the home minister.
