Earlier, senior Congress leader from Madhya Pradesh Kantilal Bhuria made controversial remarks as he alleged that BJP members were using the donation money collected for Ram Temple construction for consuming alcohol.
Interacting with the media at Petlawad, Bhuria said, “BJP leaders collected thousands of crores over the years in the name of Ram Temple construction. Where did that fund go? They collect donations in the day and drink alcohol using the same money at night”.
“Congress leaders cannot digest the fact that Ram Mandir is being constructed. They are insulting Hindus by making blatant statements. He (Bhuria) should give proof of his statement or apologize,” Kantilal Bhuria said.
Rubbishing the claim by the Congress leader, Madhya Pradesh Protem Speaker Rameshwar Sharma told news agency ANI, “The donations directly go to the bank account of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra”.
Recently, a donation drive for the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya was initiated wherein various public figures are reported to have given donations to the tune of lakhs and crores.
