'House for Lord Ram as he has been living in tent,' BJP MP Hari Narayan writes to Ayodhya DM seeking a house under Awas Yojna
As the controversy over the caste of Lord Hanuman has not laid yet, and another BJP MP has come up with a plan to shift Lord Ram in a house, who has been living under a ‘tent’ for long.
The BJP MP Hari Narayan Rajbhar from Ghosi has written a letter to the District Magistrate of Ayodhya, seeking a house for Lord Ram under the Prime Minister’s Awas Yojna and has said that as Lord Ram has been living ‘under a tent,’ there is a requirement for a proper house to be built for him.
Earlier, Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath has announced that if a Ram Temple will be constructed it will be by ‘us’ and no else can do that, whether today or in future.

Yogi Adityanath, in the reference to the issue had earlier stated that “Some people here were speaking about Ram Janmabhoomi. Friends, whosoever does this job or whenever this job is done, this job will be done by us, no one else will be able to do so.”
Rajbhar, in a letter to the DM has stated, “The Union government is duty-bound to provide shelter to the homeless, so the district officials must provide a house under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana for Lord Ram.”
Now, as the Lok Sabha elections of 2019 are approaching, the Ram Mandir tone has increased over a period of time and the BJP is again trying to invoke the Hindutva issue to polarize the voters and its core vote bank.
