Hyderabad, Dec 11: Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader K. Kavitha has said that construction of Ram Temple in Ayodhya is a dream come true for crores of Hindus.
Referring to the preparations for the inauguration of the grand temple on January 22, Kavitha posted in Telugu on X: “During the auspicious time when the idol of Sri Seetharama Chandra Swamy is installed in Ayodhya, which is a dream come true for crores of Hindus, the country welcomes it along with Telangana.”
Kavitha, who is the daughter of BRS President and former Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, also shared a video of the under-construction temple.
The BRS MLC’s comment is seen as a major shift in the party’s stand on the issue, which comes days after BRS lost power to Congress in Telangana.
The JD(S) headed by former Prime Minister Deve Gowda joined the NDA in September, a few months after both the BJP and JD(S) suffered defeat in the Karnataka Assembly elections at the hands of Congress.
BJP supporters, meanwhile, recalled the statements made by KCR, his son and BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao and Kavitha on the Ayodhya issue in the past.
Some of them posted on social media video clips from speeches made by the BRS leaders in the past. (IANS)
