Congress as 'dilapidated' as Babri masjid was in Ayodhya, says Yogi in poll-bound Haryana

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday mounted a sharp attack on the Congress at a rally in Chandigarh saying the party's structure has become as "dilapidated" as once Babri was in Ayodhya.

"Today, the structure of the Congress has become dilapidated like once Babri (mosque) structure in Ayodhya... when Lord Ram's devotees had raised the slogan 'ek dhakka aur do, Babri dhanche ko tod do'.

"The Babri structure has been demolished forever. The structure of slavery was demolished, paving the way for construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya," he said.

"And I have come to make this appeal to you. They want to divide you by doing caste politics. I told you, didn't I say 'batoge toh katoge, ek rahoge toh nek rahoge, koi mai ka laal aapka baal banka nahi kar payega'."Adityanath further alleged the Congress had "created obstacles in building Nankana Sahib corridor".

He also targeted the Congress over 1984 anti-Sikh riots."And what was Rahul Gandhi saying abroad, he was abusing Sikhs. He was defaming India..," he said referring to the Congress leader's recent statement in the US.

We worship the mother cow and they used her beef in prasadam : VHP leader Vinod Bansal

Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Vinod Bansal said, "It is such a betrayal towards our religious places which is done through an unforgivable conspiracy. There could be no other crime bigger than this in the world. We worship the mother cow and they used her beef in prasadam, even the fat of pigs and fish oil was used.

"I think a high-level judicial inquiry must be done to make things clear and the harshest punishment should be given to those involved so that no one dares to commit such crime again. VHP demands that Hindu pilgrimages, their sanctity and purity must be protected - especially in those 4 lakh temples which are under govt control. This incident is unprecedented."

This is a conspiracy to end and corrupt Sanatana Dharma: Acharya Pramod Krishnam on laddu row

On Tirupati Prasad row, Acharya Pramod Krishnam said, "This is a betrayal of the faith of crores of Hindus. This is a conspiracy to end and corrupt Sanatana Dharma. This has been happening for centuries but this is an international conspiracy and some Indian political parties are also involved in this.

"The son of Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge, Priyanka Kharge says Sanatana is a dirty word. DMK leaders are saying that Sanatan should be abolished. This conspiracy should be unearthed. Foreign powers want to weaken India and they cannot do that if Sanatana is strong. So they are attacking the Sanatana first. What the Mughals did centuries ago, the same is being done again. It is time that the administration of temples and trusts be handed over to Sanatana. I demand to PM Modi that a high-level committee be constituted and the truth should come out."

Yogi Adityanath held a rally at Sonipat, Haryana saying, "Under the double engine government of the BJP, Haryana has progressed a lot. INLD, Congress, and AAP never talk about the concerns of farmers, youth, and women.
