My statement on backing Congress over-stretched: VHP leader

Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) Working President Alok Kumar on Sunday said his statement that his organisation would consider backing the Congress in the Lok Sabha polls if it includes the construction of Ram temple in its manifesto was over-stretched.

"This is nothing but an overstretching of my statement," Kumar told IANS soon after a row erupted over his reported remarks. "Neither are we considering to support the Congress nor will we do so in future."
