Congress pioneers on Wednesday dismissed the encouragement to go to the ‘Pran Pratistha’ service of Lord Ram deity and the introduction of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya on January 22. The Congress claimed that it was an “RSS-BJP occasion” and the sanctuary had been transformed into a “political task”. It transformed into a political line and a monstrous one at that.
BJP pioneers on Thursday censured the Congress for being “hostile to Ram” and affirmed how Autonomous India’s most memorable Head of the state and Congress pioneer Jawaharlal Nehru didn’t visit the Somnath Temple after it was modified and developed. Is likewise intriguing that Dr Rajendra Prasad, India’s most memorable President, overruled Nehru and went to the introduction service of the Somnath temple.
Four Congress pioneers – – Sonia Gandhi, Manmohan Singh, Mallikarjun Kharge, and Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury – – had gotten solicitations for the Ram Mandir Sanctuary Function. On Wednesday (January 10) a Congress explanation said that Sonia Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge, and Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury wouldn’t go to the occasion.
The assertion denounced “the heads of the BJP and the RSS” of their relationship with the occasion “for appointive addition”.
HIMANTA, CT RAVI DRAW NEHRU Equals
Assam Chief Minister and BJP pioneer Himanta Biswa Sarma on Thursday went after the Congress for declining the solicitation to the January 22 occasion and referred to it as “an enemy of the Hindu party”. He likewise talked about Jawaharlal Nehru and his giving a miss to the introduction of the Somnath temple.
“By tolerating this greeting, they might have emblematically offered a conciliatory sentiment to the Hindu Samaj. In any case, as Pt Nehru did with the Somnath temple, the Congress authority did likewise with the Ram Mandir. History will keep on deciding between them as an enemy of the Hindu party,” Himanta Biswa Sarma composed on X (previously Twitter).
“The Congress party (has) a once-in-a-lifetime chance to lessen its wrongdoings by stretching out their authority and encouragement to join in,” Himanta added.
Karnataka BJP President and CT Ravi also went after the Congress‘ new choice and helped to remember Nehru’s Somnath stand.
“Congress has forever been against Hindutva. The Somnath Temple was reproduced by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Babu Rajendra Prasad, and KM Munshi. Jawaharlal Nehru was the Top state leader during that time. He didn’t visit Somnath. So how might the current authority of Congress go to Ayodhya?” CT Ravi told.
This isn’t the initial occasion when the BJP has beheld back to Jawaharlal Nehru and the Somnath Temple introduction to censure Congress pioneers.
Pummeling Rahul Gandhi on his 2017 visit to the Saurashtra holy place, PM Narendra Modi said, “When Sardar Patel took up crafted by re-development of Somnath Temple, Nehru was troubled. Your (Rahul Gandhi’s) incredible granddad Nehru composed a letter to President Rajendra Prasad when he was to come for the initial service of the sanctuary.”
“This place that is known for fearless individuals won’t pardon the people who have acted against the Somnath Temple,” PM Modi said.
Yet, what precisely has Jawaharlal Nehru As BJP pioneer the Assam CM attracted the lined up between Congress’ inclusion in both the sanctuaries; Somnath and Ayodhya, it would be intriguing to return to the episode and how it unfurled.
SOMNATH Sanctuary AND JAWAHARLAL NEHRU
The Somnath Temple, one of the 12 venerated Jyotirlingas in Gujarat, was annihilated by trespassers on different occasions and was recreated since the beginning of time. It was destroyed to the ground on the sets of Aurangzeb and stayed in that state till it was reconstructed after India’s Freedom.
After Autonomy, Home Minister Sardar Patel promised to reestablish the Somnath to its previous greatness. Notwithstanding, Nehru had profound worries about the topic of state contribution in a strict undertaking and about its reproduction and the presence of government delegates during the sanctuary’s introduction in 1951.
Nehru dreaded it very well may be misinterpreted as special treatment towards one religion, endangering the country’s obligation to secularism.
The arrangement to revamp the Somnath temple and the conflicts among the pioneers came only a couple of years after Junagadh, a royal state, consented to the Indian Association in 1947.
While KM Munshi, was responsible for Somnath temple’s development, Nehru called it an endeavor at “Hindu revivalism”.
“He [Nehru] was exceptionally aware of their weakness and instabilities. Hindus and Muslims had been bickering furiously two or three years sooner, and Nehru would have rather not enraptured networks once more and resume injuries from a long time ago right when India was settling down. Those were delicate times, and Nehru figured the President didn’t need to connect himself with a sanctuary that was obliterated by a Muslim intruder many quite a while back when Muslims of India didn’t have anything to do with Mahmud of Ghazni,” student of history Ramchandra Guha composed.
Nehru likewise didn’t believe that the public authority should spend any cash on the remaking of the Somnath temple. He upheld that reproduction be supported through open gifts instead of state reserves, contending that a common government shouldn’t lean toward one religion.
Discussing the subsidizing of the Somnath in 1951, one more equal springs up. After PM Nehru kept the utilization from getting public cash for the sanctuary reproduction, a gift drive was done on the directions of Mahatma Gandhi, across India. In this way, the Somnath temple was modified through gifts in fundamentally the same way that the Ram Mandir is being developed in Ayodhya now.
Just before Somnath temple’s introduction in 1951, nonetheless, Nehru kept in touch with President Rajendra Prasad, communicating his disappointment with the leader of the republic visiting its initiation.
“I admit that I could do without the possibility of your partner yourself with the tremendous opening of the Somnath Temple. This isn’t only visiting a sanctuary, which should unquestionably be possible by you or any other person, but rather partaking in a critical capability which tragically has a few ramifications,” Nehru kept in touch with Rajendra Prasad, then Leader of India.
Regardless of Nehru’s reservations, Prasad went to the Somnath temple’s initiation in May 1951.
Rajendra Prasad gave an extremely solid contention to Nehru.
“I would do likewise with a mosque or a congregation on the off chance that I was welcomed… This is the center of Indian secularism. Our state is neither skeptical nor against strict,” Prasad kept in touch with Nehru.
This is Jawaharlal Nehru’s stand on the Somnath temple. This is the “verifiable sin”, Himanta Biswa Sarma was alluding to while going after Congress pioneers for their refusal to go to the sanctification service at the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya.
