New Delhi. Congress Parliamentary Party President Sonia Gandhi, in an interview given to 'The Guardian' about her book 'Belonging: A Journey of Love', while remembering the incident of Ayodhya Babri demolition, said that she cried after seeing the pictures of the demolition of Babri Masjid on 6 December 1992 on TV. On this statement of Sonia Gandhi, BJP has hit back at her. BJP national spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said that today, when a new world record of Deepotsav is being made in Ayodhya on the previous day of Diwali and Ayodhya is sparkling, darkness is clearly visible inside the Congress party. This shows that even then Babar was in the heart of the Congress Party, and even today Babar is there.
The BJP leader said, Sonia Gandhi ji, three generations of your family have visited Babar's grave and prostrated themselves. Jawahar Lal Nehru in 1959, Indira Gandhi in 1968 and Rahul Gandhi in 2005 visited Babar's grave with Manmohan Singh. Despite this, what was in your heart has come to light today. Now Congress has limited itself to the memory of Mahatma Gandhi's Ram Rajya and Babar Raj. The anti-Ram face of the Congress Party, which attacked the constitutional institution of India along with anti-India forces at Ramlila Maidan, came to the fore today. That Sonia Gandhi who looked inconsolable about Gaza, I want to ask why did you not have tears in your eyes on what happened in Kashmir in 1990? Apart from this, I would also like to ask, it is very surprising that the structure which is legally considered as 'disputed structure' is once again being called 'Babri Masjid' by a Congress leader.
Accusing Congress of double character, Sudhanshu Trivedi said that late Rajiv Gandhi had started his election campaign in 1989 from Ayodhya by taking the name of Lord Ram and today Sonia Gandhi, by taking the name of Babri, being inconsolable on Gaza, wants to shed tears for the accused of Batla House encounter, this makes it clear what is the inner mentality of Congress. Congress is not only with the Muslim community but with the fundamentalist Muslims. Sonia Gandhi should clarify whether she had tears in her eyes for the birthplace of God or for the mosque.
