I cannot go to Sankardeva's birthplace but others can during crisis: Rahul

During a law and order crisis all can go to the birthplace of Vaishnav saint Srimanta Sankardeva but only 'Rahul Gandhi cannot go', the Congress leader said in Assam's Nagaon. Gandhi was stopped at Haibargaon enroute to the sattra (Sankardeva's birthplace) where he along with senior Congress leaders and supporters staged a dharna while party MP Gaurav Gogoi and Batadrava MLA Sibamoni Bora proceeded to the birthplace to resolve the issue. After they returned, Gandhi told reporters that he believes in the philosophy of Sankardeva as 'we also believe in bringing people together and not spreading hatred'. "He is like a guru to us and gives us direction. So I had thought when I came to Assam, I should offer my respects to him', he said. Gandhi said they had received an invitation to visit Sankardeva's birthplace on January 11 but 'on Sunday we were told that there is a law and order situation', he added.

TMC govt refraining people from participating in Ram temple event, says BJP

The West Bengal BJP on Monday accused the TMC government of trying to refrain people from participating in the celebrations of Ram temple inauguration in various parts of the state, aligning with the consecration ceremony at Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. Former state BJP president and MP Dilip Ghosh, who began the day by offering puja at a temple in Kharagpur, said, "The 'Sampriti (harmony) Rally' by TMC is an attempt to mislead people". "As the country is celebrating the Ram temple inauguration, the TMC government in Bengal is trying to stop people from participating in such celebrations through the all-faith rally to be organised by the ruling party. We condemn such an attempt," he said. His remarks drew a sharp rebuttal from the TMC, which stated that its 'all-faith" rally has nothing to do with Ram temple inauguration.

Ayodhya 2.0: Transformed holy town turns a page with temple pivot

Security barricades, barbed wires and frequent frisking by police personnel have been a common sight in Ayodhya. But the holy city has now undergone a paradigm shift fuelled by massive infrastructure growth with the grand Ram temple at its heart. It was the 2019 Supreme Court verdict on the fractious Ramjanmabhoomi-Babri Masjid issue that paved the way for the progress of this pilgrim city which till a few years ago was a sleepy town in Uttar Pradesh. On Monday, a new chapter will be written in Ayodhya's and the country's history with the consecration ceremony at the newly-built Ram temple which will be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and over 7,000 guests. This 'Pran Pratishtha' has been preceded by a series of infrastructural projects to turn the temple town into what the government calls a 'Bhavya, Divya and Navya Ayodhya'. With a swanky new airport, a redeveloped railway station, two widened roads -- Ram Path and Dharm Path -- which are now showpiece streets, multi-lev
