Opposition can't oppose Ram temple, says Mohan Bhagwat

October 02, 2018 17:57

RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat has said even opposition parties can not openly oppose a Ram temple in Ayodhya as the deity is revered by the country's majority.

Bhagwat said the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and the Bharatiya Janata Party are committed to constructing a Ram temple in Ayodhya but certain things take time.

He said it's important who occupies the seat of power and a government doing a good job should remain in office.

Every government has its limitations and has to perform within those constraints. However, saints and seers are beyond such limitations and they should work for the uplift of religion, country and society, the RSS chief said.

"Even opposition parties cannot openly oppose a Ram temple in Ayodhya as they are aware the deity is revered by a majority of Indians. But certain things take time," Bhagwat said.

"Every government has its limitations but a government doing a good job should remain in power. It is important who occupies the seat of power," he said.
