Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday accused the Congress of making several attempts to stall the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya and for insulting Lord Ram by rejecting the invitation for the ‘pran pratishta’ ceremony.

Addressing an election rally here, Modi also said that the Congress is immersed in the swamp of appeasement and can never come out of it.

“The Congress made several efforts so that the Ram temple in Ayodhya is not constructed. But when the people of the country made such a beautiful temple by contributing every penny, and when the temple people forgave all your sins, and invited you for the ‘pran prathistaa’, you insulted Lord Ram by rejecting the invitation and expelled leaders, who attended it, for six years,” he said.
