Lucknow,

Nov 10 (HS): Pankaj Chaudhary, Uttar Pradesh BJP president, criticized SP chief

Akhilesh Yadav for his scheduled visit to the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, urging him

to go on December 6 rather than December 12 and beg forgiveness for the 1990

deaths of Ram devotees. In a post on X,

Chaudhary questioned Yadav's motives for the visit and urged true repentance.

He wrote: If this new strategy of yours is not about Lord Shri Ram, but true

repentance! Then go to the Ram temple on December 6th, not the 12th. Seek

pardon for the terrible sin of killing hundreds of Ram worshipers.

If

this is not a new plot against Lord Ram, but genuine remorse, travel to the Ram

Temple on December 6, not December 12. Seek pardon for murdering hundreds of

Ram followers. Do not expect your previous misdeeds to be wiped away; instead,

you will destroy whatever life you have left with this pretense of dedication

to Ram. Chaudhary's remarks pertain to the events of October 30 and November 2,

1990, when security forces shot on kar sevaks assembled near the Babri Masjid

in Ayodhya during a protest staged by the saffron brigade, with the goal of demolishing

the mosque and constructing a temple devoted to Lord Ram.
