Amid the Opposition boycott, and inauguration of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, former cricketer and AAP MP Harbhajan Singh firmly said that he would be visiting the temple and said that if anyone has a problem with him visiting the temple they can do whatever they want.
According to a report by ANI, Harbhajan Singh further said, “My good wishes to the people of the country. The Pran Pratishtha is going to take place. As many people as possible should join the event either in person or on television and seek blessings. It is a historic day. Lord Ram belongs to everyone. It is a big thing that the temple of Lord Ram is being constructed at his birthplace. Everyone should go.”
The Murti of Ram Lalla was placed in the ‘Garbha Griha’ of the Ram Temple on Thursday. A special puja was held in the sanctum sanctorum before the murti was brought inside with the help of a crane on Wednesday night.
The ‘Pran Pratishtha’ of Ram Lalla at Ayodhya’s temple will take place on 22nd January. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will perform rituals to mark the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ while a team of priests, led by Lakshmikant Dixit, will lead the main rituals.
Harbhajan Singh emphasized that the temple being constructed now is a historic event and good fortune for all. When asked about political parties declining the invitation to Pran Pratishtha, Harbhajan Singh said, “Things said by political people is a different matter. But the right thing is that the temple is being inaugurated. It is our good fortune that this temple is being built at this time – in our lifetime. So we all should go there and get the blessings. And I would like to say that irrespective of who goes there or not, I have faith in Bhagwan Shri Ram. I have a firm belief and I will go there."
The former cricketer added, “It is my stand irrespective of which party goes there or not. As an individual, I believe in Lord Ram. I will definitely go there. If Congress wants to go, they can go. If they do not want to go, they are also free to do that. The same applied to everyone else. And if anyone has a problem with me going to Ayodhya, they can do whatever they want. I am a strong believer in Bhagwan. Whatever things are happening in my life are all His Krupa. And therefore I will definitely go there and get blessings of Bhagwan Shri Ram.”
