Jammu: Senior BJP leader Devender Singh Rana today said January 22, 2024 will treasure itself in the history of rising India as beginning of an era characterized by harmony and inclusivity, the cornerstone of Sanatan Dharma, a way of life for the world to live in spirit of Vasudeva Kutumbakam.
“Let this sacred and historical occasion inspire us all to emulate the ideals of Maryada Purushottam Shree Ram and foster the bonds that bind us as a nation believing in compassion, righteousness and love for humanity”, Devender Rana said while inaugurating magnificent ‘Mukhya Dwaar’ of ancient Narshinghji Temple at Gharota in Block Bhalwal.
Greeting the people on the consecration of Ram Temple at Ayodhya by Prime Minister Yashasvi Narendra Modi, the Senior BJP leader described the sacred endeavour as a journey of over 500 years of devotion and determination. The construction of the Ram Temple is a testament to the enduring faith and reverence for the Maryada Purshotam and this generation is blessed to witness the Tapasya of millions of Sanatanis, who suffered ignominy but remained steadfast in their resolve to have the home for Ram Lalla—the embodiment of the ideals of righteousness and virtue– where the Lord was born. This marks a historical moment in the rich tapestry of rising Bharat’s cultural and spiritual heritage, which will enlighten the world and carve out a way forward for the nation to become Vishwaguru, he added.

He said the contribution of thousands, irrespective of religion, caste or region, in building a magnificent temple is a symbol of inclusive India.
