Ravidas temple demolition: SAD-BJP delegation to call on PM Modi
India TV NewsShiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal on Thursday said a SAD-BJP delegation will soon meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi and urge him to provide a piece of land for rebuilding the Guru Ravidas temple which was demolished in Delhi's Tughlakabad area. A SAD-BJP delegation will meet the prime minister and ask him to assuage the hurt feelings of the Dalit community as well as find an amicable solution to the demolition of Guru Ravidas temple, he said while addressing a gathering on the occasion of 'Rakhar Punia' here. On Wednesday, Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh had said he would lead a delegation of the Ravidas community to meet Modi to seek his intervention to the issue of the demolition of the historic temple last week. The Congress had promised that it will end the drug menace within four weeks after assuming power, but its leaders are "in league with drug smugglers and peddlers and busy in making money out of this dirty business," Badal alleged.
