Anita Katyal | Why BJP wants Kerala to rejoice; Pawar homes in on heir apparent

Deccan Chronicle  

With two weeks to go for the grand consecration ceremony of the Ram Temple at Ayodhya, the Bharatiya Janata Party’s plans to publicise the event have picked up speed. * In 2019, Nationalist Congress Party leader Sharad Pawar decided to move to the Rajya Sabha and fielded his daughter Supriya Sule from his Lok Sabha constituency Baramati. Similarly, Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav is learnt to have told Rahul Gandhi that the Congress demand for 22 seats in Uttar Pradesh is unrealistic given the party’s negligible presence in the state. * Congress Lok Sabha member Shashi Tharoor’s recent comments on the Ram Mandir did not go down well with his party which is still struggling to take a decision on whether its leaders should attend the consecration ceremony at Ayodhya on January 22. In an informal conversation with presspersons, Congress communications chief Jairam Ramesh said Mr Tharoor is not the party’s official voice and any one offering such unofficial comments can be pulled up.
