Uddhav warns BJP over Ram temple delay, predicts 2019 loss

Ayodhya: Mounting pressure on the BJP government at the Centre over the construction of a grand Ram temple in Uttar Pradesh here, Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday said if the Narendra Modi government dithered this time, it will not come to power in 2019. Addressing the media after a 30-minute darshan of the Ram Lalla, the Shiv sena supremo said no one should play with the sentiments of the Hindus in this matter. “Time when Hindus were beaten up is a thing of the past, Hindus now are powerful and have a voice,” Thackeray said.

The Sena chief again repeated his party’s commitment to an early construction of a grand Ram temple in Ayodhya and said if the central government brought a Bill or an ordinance for the temple construction, his party would extend its absolute support. (IANS)
