'Pita Ka Shraddh Hai?' JD-U MP Slams Ram Mandir Invites, Chief Priest Hits Back With 'Moorkh' Barb

Speaking about the invitations to the 'pranpratishtha' ceremony, the JDU MP questioned the need to send the invitations to the Ram Temple Consecration ceremony.

Ram Temple Consecration Ceremony: Janata Dal (United) MP Kaushalendra Kumar took a swipe over the invitations being extended to attend the Ram Temple consecration ceremony. Speaking about the invitations to the 'pranpratishtha' ceremony, the JDU MP questioned the need to send the invitations. He said, “What is the need for this invitation? Is it someone's father's 'shraadh' or somebody's son's wedding?" news agency ANI quoted on Saturday. Kaushalendra Kumar further stated that the one who is inviting is a "moorkh" (fool).

“Ayodhya belongs to everyone, if someone is trying to capture it, it won't happen... Such people are arriving there on January 22, where both husbands and wives will seek blessings from Lord Ram and Goddess Sita. If someone goes there without Sita, they too won't benefit in 2024," he added, as quoted by news agency ANI.

Speaking about Kaushalendra Kumar's remark, Shri Ram Janambhoomi Teerth Kshetra chief priest Acharya Satyendra Das said that he himself is a "moorkh (fool)." He further said that invites are sent for the smallest of the works that are done.

"A fool will always speak like one. He himself is a fool. Invites are letters of honour that someone is being invited to the grand works surrounding Lord Ram that are being done. We send invites for the smallest of the works that are done...A fool who has no knowledge will always use such language...He should keep his foolishness to himself," Acharya Satyendra Das said, as quoted by ANI.
