Union Home Minister Amit Shah stated in the Lok Sabha on Saturday that January 22, the day of the consecration of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, “marked the beginning of Bharat’s new journey”. Joining the discussion on the construction of the Ram Mandir in Lok Sabha, Amit Shah said India cannot be imagined without Lord Ram.
“22 January was the beginning of great India… Those who imagine a country without lord Ram do not know our country well and they represent the days of colonialism. I want to say that those who don’t know their history end up losing their identity… 22 January will be a historic day for the years to come. It was the day that fulfilled the hopes & aspirations of all Ram devotees,” Amit Shah said.
