In Pilibhit, PM Modi slams Congress for ‘insulting’ Lord Ram over Ayodhya event

The BJP has fielded Prasada, Uttar Pradesh minister and Congress turncoat, replacing the incumbent MP Varun Gandhi.

• “Pilibhit's land is blessed by Mother Yashwantri Devi. This is the origin place of Adi Ganga Maa Gomti. Today, on the first day of Navratri, I am also reminding the country how the 'INDI' alliance has vowed to destroy ‘shakti’,” PM Modi said. He added, “The Congress leaders are talking about overthrowing the 'shakti' before which we bow our heads.”

• PM Modi attacked Congress for declining the Ram Temple consecration ceremony. He said, “Congress tried its best to prevent the construction of Ram Temple in Ayodhya, but when the people of the country built such a grand temple by contributing every penny and when the people of the temple forgave all your sins and invited you for the pran pratishtha, they insulted Lord Ram by rejecting the invitation.
