Congress in dilemma over attending The Ram Temple inauguration or not

The Ram Temple inauguration in Ayodhya has created a lot of confusion within the Congress whether they should pay a visit or not and accept the invitation.

The Beautiful Ram Temple in Ayodhya

The I.N.D.I. is feeling unsettled and confused ahead of the Ram Temple opening in Ayodhya next month.a group in which the Congress is being careful about showing up, while other parties are cautioning about sliding into the so-called "BJP trap".

 

The General Secretary (Organisation), K C Venugopal, has not made it clear whether Mallikarjun Kharge, Sonia Gandhi, and Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury—who have been invited to the dedication ritual on January 22—will attend. Sources claim that leaders are divided on the matter.
 

Leaders in Congress are working through the night to formulate a balanced stance because the Congress decision will have an impact in either direction.

The spokesperson for SAMASTHA  cited the Congress's soft-Hindutva policies, including the delivery of twelve silver bricks by Kamal Nath, the party's leader in Madhya Pradesh, for the building of the Ram temple, which is being built at the location of the destroyed Babri Masjid. The party ran a strongly Hindutva campaign in the state, promising a Hanuman temple and having holy men bless leaders. However, this did not help the party win the state.

 

The editorial said that the strong Hindutva of the BJP defeated the mild Hindutva of the Congress.

 

The IUML experienced a schism in 1994 when certain members of the party and the community viewed its stance on the demolition of the Babri Masjid as being too moderate. 

 

In Kerala, the LDF has an ally in the Indian National League, a breakaway organisation that was formed by the late IUML politician Ebrahim Sulaiman Sait.

 

In a nod to the aforementioned, the CPI(M) has been applying pressure to the IUML by questioning the party's capacity to oppose the Congress's moderate Hindutva stance in the states of North India.

 

Legislator K T Jaleel, a supporter of the left, claimed that the IUML once had leaders who were willing to challenge the Congress when it "strayed" from the secular viewpoint.
