Former Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi on August 6th, 2020 said with the Bhumi Puja of Ram temple, let the politics of division and hatred be buried in the country.
“Bhagawan Ram is symbol of love, truth & justice. Hindutta on the other hand divides people, creates hatred,” the senior Assam Congress leader tweeted.
“Today’s FSL ceremony of Ram temple will be a golden day in world’s history. We ram bhakta wish Ram bless humanity to get rid ofcovid 19. It will usher in harmony and dignified life to all. Using Ram name for political purpose only denigrate Ram’s devine position “Ram is above all”,” said Tarun Gogoi on August 5th, 2020.
