The inauguration of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya and the “Pran Pratishtha” ceremony, according to BJP national president JP Nadda, marked the beginning of a “new era.” On Sunday, during the second day of the BJP’s national convention in the nation’s capital at the cutting-edge Bharat Mandapam, Nadda addressed party leaders and supporters, saying, “The ‘Pran Pratishtha’ of Ram Lalla in Ayodhya was celebrated as a national festival and also made waves globally.” The occasion marked the start of a new chapter in the nation’s history. One of our serious resolutions was to rebuild the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, and on December 22 of last year, that goal was accomplished.
As you all are aware, after the landmark Supreme Court judgement (in the Ram Janmabhoomi case) on November 9, 2019, the central government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi formed the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra to oversee the construction of the grand temple in Ayodhya. The construction work progressed at a fast pace within just four years from the day the Supreme Court settled the title dispute, the idol of Ram Lalla was unveiled to the world on January 22.”
The ongoing brainstorming sessions at the national concention are aimed at firming up the party’s strategy and charge up cadres ahead of the Lok Sabha elections that are likely to be notified soon.
Later on Sunday, PM Modi and Nadda will chair a meeting of the Chief Ministers Council of the states ruled by the Bharatiya Janata Party, as per party sources. In honor of the Jain seer Acharya Shri 108 Vidyasagar Ji Maharaj, who passed away earlier on Sunday, Nadda, Prime Minister Modi, Union Ministers, chief ministers of states ruled by the Bharatiya Janata Party, and other party leaders observed a one-minute silence prior to his speech. Nadda made the following statement regarding the passing of the Jain seer: “We were informed that he passed at 1.30 am (on Sunday).” On October 10, 1946, Vidhyasagar Ji Maharaj was born in the Belagavi Tehsil of Karnataka.
During his address to the party supporters on the inaugural day, Prime Minister Modi said that for the BJP, 370 was not just a figure that it should set sights on achieving in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, but it would be their way of paying tribute to saffron ideologue and one of the party’s founders, Syama Prasad Mukherjee.
