Madhya Pradesh Elections: Congress has sent missives to all its block-level devices asking that programs like recounting of Ram Katha as well as enactment of Ram Leela be hung on Ram Navami.

The Congress in Madhya Pradesh has asked its devices across the state to arrange special occasions and also prayers on the occasions of Ram Navami as well as Hanuman Jayanti, stimulating mocking belly laughs from the BJP camp. The judgment BJP is celebrating Ram Navami with unique events in spiritual areas like Chitrakoot and Orchha. Earthen lights will be lit in every Ram temple in the state.

The Congress, at the same time, has sent out missives to all its block-level units asking that programs like address of Ram Katha and also implementation of Ram Leela be held on Ram Navami. On Hanuman Jayanti, there ought to be readings from the Sundar Kand and Hanuman Chalisa, guided Chandraprabhash Shekhar, vice-president in-charge of the organization, in his letters.

Senior leader as well as former Principal Preacher Kamal Nath will likewise issue a message on Ram Navmi and also hold a spiritual programme on Hanuman Jayanti at Chhindwara.

The judgment BJP has mocked the step as “hypocrisy”, stating that Congress leaders had described Lord Ram as an imaginary character. Setting up surveys are due in the state next year.

The Congress’s plan of action has actually had some internal doubters also.

Bhopal MLA Arif Masood doubted the letter, stating, “What was the demand for our celebration to start this new custom of issuing directions to all its units to celebrate events of any kind of neighborhood? “Why aren’t comparable letters being issued for commemorating Ramzan and also observing Great Friday and also Easter additionally?”

By providing such letters the Congress is providing the ruling BJP ammunition to target it, he claimed. “Such developments inclined towards party of events of one area are bound to discomfort the minorities,” he included.

Elderly BJP leader as well as residence priest Dr Narottam Mishra took a dig at the MLA claiming, “This is just ‘acche hullabaloo’ as Congress leaders are going to the holy place … Masood is not able to digest that Congress leaders who used to arrange ‘Iftar’ parties are now seeing temples”.

The Madhya Pradesh Congress has been much criticised for seeking what has actually been referred to as “soft Hindutva”.

Ahead of the last state elections in 2018, the CPM had advised that “If the Congress believes it can defeat the BJP by … soft Hindutva strategies, it is incorrect”.

“The attempt to prove that the Congress was truly extra Hindu than the BJP observed a flurry of temple visits by Rahul Gandhi in the three states; the statement of belief of the Congress in Madhya Pradesh broached ‘gaushalas’, commercial sale of ‘gau mutra’ as well as developing a ‘Ram Van Gaman Path Yatra,” a content in the CPM mouthpiece “People’s Freedom” had reviewed.

Two years later– after its government had fallen down with the defection of Jyotiradiya Scindia as well as his loyalists– the Congress was seen going after a “Har Har Mahadev, Ghar Mahadev” campaign, dispersing mini idols of Lord Shiva or Shivlings amongst citizens ahead of by-polls to 25 setting up seats.
