New Delhi: BJP‘s Rajya Sabha member Subramanian Swamy on Thursday demanded a decision on the vexed issue of the Ram temple at Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh and urged the government to make a statement on the day-to-day hearing of the case in the Supreme Court.
He said that both the Prime Minister and the chief justice of India have spoken on the backlog of cases in the apex court.
“I want to say that it (Ram temple) is a very difficult problem.... Both sides are agreed that if the Supreme Court decides, it will be an agreeable solution,” Swamy said in the Rajya Sabha amid an uproar from the opposition benches.
Yesterday, while participating in long stretched debate on Agustawestland scam Subramanian Swamy said, “Accusations based on facts, there’s nothing to do with Vendetta.”

“It is a lie to say that NDA Govt was the one to change specification of height (of the helicopters). That was lowered because it was found that present choice that we’ve made of AgustaWestland cannot fly beyond 4500 metres,” he added.
Further in his speech, he said, “Original proposal was to buy 8 helicopters, after it became clear that Agusta was only 1 to qualify, they decided to buy 4 more.”
“There was a clear effort to eliminate all other companies so that only Agusta would fit the required criteria.”
