CPI(M)'s John Brittas trained his guns on the Modi government for allegedly “politicising” Ram temple in Ayodhya.

Transcript

00:00My Ram is Mahatma Gandhi's Ram, their Ram is Nadu Ram, that is a farrakk!

00:22I'm little sad that Honorable Rashtrapati ji has been made to read out

00:28the election manifesto of BJP. As expected, there has been mention about Ayodhya,

00:38thrice. And in all the speeches, without Ayodhya, without Prime Minister, no speech is completed from the

00:50treasury benches. Madam, we are passing through very difficult times. The astrologers will teach you science,

00:58government will teach you technology, technology saiyana, government will teach you technology,

01:08Amit Shah ji and Harikumar Dutta together will teach you harmony between states and center. This is it.

01:16Sir, all of a sudden, BJP has become low-abiding. Jitna baar bol rahe Supreme Court kabare.

01:24Even during the Pran Pradishta, there was a reference to Supreme Court. Are they inflicted with selective amnesia?

01:34They are indeed. What did the Supreme Court say in its verdict? An honorable judge who presided over the

01:44bench is a member of the South. I rarely see him. Today, I saw him for two minutes, but he disappeared.

01:50I wanted to speak about that. Is it not a fact, the same Supreme Court said, there was a conspiracy,

02:00calculated act and egregious violation. It further said, the desecration in 1949 leading to the

02:12ousting of Muslims and its eventual destruction on December 6, constituted a serious violation of rule of law.

02:22Kisne kiya? Daji sahab, aap log ne kiya hai. All of a sudden, they forget about it. I mean, they forget about the Supreme Court verdict.

02:32Everybody, they all speak about Ram. Hare, hamara bhi hai Ram. Aapka thodi hai. Ram belongs to us also.

02:40See, my Ram is Mahatma Gandhi's Ram. Of compassion, of harmony and love. You also have a Ram.

02:50You also have a Ram. But there is a prefix to that. You know what is the prefix? Their Ram is Nadu Ram.

02:58That is a farak. That is a difference between our Ram and your Ram. Sir, nowadays, we cannot distinguish

03:06between the prime minister and the high priest. Whether the, our prime minister is a high priest,

03:12or the high priest is a prime minister. If there is a political program, it will be turned into a religious program.

03:20If it is a religious program, it would be turned into a political program. They all accused us

03:26of staying away from Ayodhya Pranpradishta. Hare, what did the Shankaracharyas did?

03:32Will you send ED and CBI after Shankaracharyas? All of them stayed away. Because they didn't want to be part of this political drama

03:42which you are trying to whip up there in Ayodhya. You cannot deceive Lord Rama.

03:48Because though you are harping on Rama, your only intention is to have, to reap political benefits, nothing else.

04:02Madam, the situation in this country, it's vitiated. You would be surprised, madam.

04:09A professor in an organization, in an institute, posted in her social media account,

04:15that she is proud of, God save, for saving India. This is because you are inspiring the academics to say that.

04:24Can you ever think about such a situation, say, five years back in this country?

04:30This is where the country has been taken. When you talk about sabke saath, sabka vigas, sabke prayas,

04:38your only intention is to segregate, create polarization, divide this country, take this country to the medieval era.

04:46We will not allow this. At 2024 elections would be a waterloo for you. Thank you very much, sir.
