Mysuru: BJP is expecting to gain people’s sympathy by constructing Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. This means it’s only a form of publicity for the party. But, the people are donating money for the construction of the SriRama Mandir and not to the BJP. Not only in Ayodhya, but all villages have a temple dedicated to SriRama. Even in my hometown, I am constructing a Ram Mandir. The people have already contributed towards this”, Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said. 

Speaking to the press in the city on Saturday, he said, “One does not need to be a donor to ask about the details surrounding the amount collected so far in the name of building the Rama Mandir. Since that money belongs to the public, anybody can ask about it. They have already collected nearly 1,500 crores. But since they are refusing to give an account, it is evident that corruption has occurred on their part. Therefore, they must give a clear account of the money they have collected thus far”, Siddaramaiah demanded.

New Delhi (PTI): Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Monday asked Prime Mi nister Narendra Modi to tell his MPs to do better homework before raising issues in Parliament.

His reaction came after BJP MP K Laxman accused the Congress and other opposition parties of appeasement and doing votebank politics by giving OBC reservation to Muslims.

"Today in the Rajya Sabha, the Indian National Congress was accused of appeasement because of its stance on reservations for Muslims on the basis of backwardness," Ramesh said in a post on X.

"Here is what the Prime Minister had himself said on this subject on Feb 9, 2022. The PM should tell his MPs to do better homework," the Congress leader said, while sharing an undated video of the Prime Minister.

In the video, PM Modi is saying that in Gujarat too, there are 70 such castes in Muslim community which were OBC.

"In my Gujarat, when I was there, they received the benefits under OBC category, but I did not see that in the media," the prime minister said in the video.
