BSP supremo Mayawati has called for Dalit Mahamandaleshwar Swami Giri's inclusion in Ram Mandir Bhoomi Pujan ceremony to held on August 5 in Ayodhya. PM Modi will lay the foundation stone of the grand Ram Temple and the event will be marked by Diwali like celebrations.
Taking it to Twitter, Chief of BSP and former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati said, "In view of the complaint of Dalit Mahamandaleshwar Swami Kanhaiya Prabhunandan Giri, it would have been better if he had been called along with the other 200 saints in the Bhoomipujan ceremony to be held in Ayodhya on August 5. This could have had some impact on the constitutional intention of creating a casteless society in the country."
In another tweet, Mayawati said, "Instead of falling into these circles, the Dalit society suffering from casteist neglect, contempt and injustice should focus more on labor/deeds for their own salvation and in this case also on the path of their Messiah Param Pujya Baba Saheb Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar. This is the advice of the BSP."
