KPCC Vice-President slams RSS chief for Ayodhya temple remarks, linking its inauguration with ‘true independence’

The Hindu  

The Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee Vice-President V.S. Ugrappa slammed the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat for his recent remarks linking the construction of the temple at Ayodhya with India’s ‘true independence’. Speaking to media persons here on Friday, Mr. Ugrappa said this was an affront and insult to lakhs of freedom fighters who sacrificed their lives fighting the British. “The BJP twists and distorts statements of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi but when Mr. Bhagwat makes a statement that belittles the freedom movement and is an insult to the Constitution, they fail to take any action,” said Mr. Ugrappa. Taking potshots at the State BJP for frequently claiming that the Chief Minister would be replaced or the Congress government in Karnataka was bound to fall, Mr. Ugrappa said the BJP was a divided house.
