Delhi Congress working president Rajesh Lilothia on Friday rejected the Centre's offer to provide 200 square metre land for a Ravidas temple in south Delhi after the authorities demolished an existing structure.
Lilothia, a petitioner in the case in the Supreme Court, said, "The government's proposal says that a temporary structure will house the idol of Guru Ravidasji and the dimension of the temporary structure will be 20 feet by 20 feet. This is highly objectionable and disturbing. It is going to hurt the sentiments of millions of followers and worshippers of Guru Ravidas."
