Bihar: BJP and JDU workers clash over Ram Temple issue, creates furor over poll manifesto

Creating a furor over the Ram Temple issue for the alliance partners in Bihar, the workers of BJP and JDU have clashed with each other seeking a mandate for the construction ahead of the launch of poll manifesto.

At a public meeting in Bihar’s Hajipur district, both BJP and JDU workers present and the BJP supporters started shouting Ram Mandir, but the JDU leader Sanjay Verma cleared the air stating that Mandir should not be the core issue of campaign and strategy should be different when contesting for Lok Janshakti Party’s Pashupati Kumar Paras, State Minister and younger brother of Ram Vilas Paswan.

In a damage control situation, Sanjay clearly said that no one has any dispute over the issue of Ram Mandir, while BJP workers had thrown chairs, banged the table, and climbed on the stage as Sanjay Verma entered and said, “Only the media can see party workers fighting, the local people are not angry over anything.”
