Subramanian Swamy, the BJP MP while delivering a talk at “Is Indian Economy in Tailspin?” said “we will win Babri Masjid case before January” and Ram temple will help the party win elections. He said the BJP government failed on the macroeconomic front, but people vote on emotive issues.
Mr Swamy while replying to a question said, “On the microeconomics front, the Modi government did well. Schemes like Ujwala changed the lives of poor women. However, on the macro front, the government failed. But, economics won’t help win elections. It was evident during the regimes of Morarji Desai, Narasimha Rao and Vajpayee. They lost despite a good growth rate.”
He said, “Building the Ram temple will help BJP win polls. I am sure the party will sweep north India. But we are not promoting Ram temple because we promised to do it. The claim of the Muslim body is property related. But Hindu organisations claimed it’s their place of worship as Ram was born in Ayodhya.”
He observed that right to worship as the constitutional right would prevail over property claim. And the government should bring an ordinance to build the temple.
He further added that “Muslims particularly Shias, Bohras, and women are not against Ram Mandir. If ever any masjid has to be built it can be done in adjoining districts to Ayodhya, where there’s a Muslim population.”
