Saket Gokhale says that when mass prayers are not allowed at Bakad, how Bhoomi Pujan can take place, Bhoomi Pujan can increase the risk of corona infection.
New Delhi: After nearly 150 years of legal battle, the construction of Sriram Temple has once again overshadowed the court hearing. Activist Saket Gokhale, an NGO close to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, has sent a petition to the Allahabad High Court seeking a ban on the proposed Bhoomi Pujan on August 5. Gokhale says how Bhoomi Pujan can take place when mass prayers are not allowed at Bakad. Gokhale said Bhoomi Pujan could increase the risk of corona infection.
The Ayodhya Pilgrim Area Trust had set the date of August 3 or 5 after the meeting. The trust had invited PM Modi to perform Bhoomi Pujan, which he accepted. PM Modi is on his way to Ayodhya on August 5 to perform Bhoomi Pujan of Sriram Temple. He will stay in Ayodhya from 11 am to 1 pm. The auspicious muhurat of 12:15 pm has been fixed for bhoomi pujan of the temple. Around 300 people including Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat will be present in Ayodhya to witness this historic occasion.
A major controversy has begun even before the PM goes to Ayodhya. Saket Gokhale, an NGO-run activist, has sent a letter to the Chief Justice of the Allahabad High Court. Gokhale urged the letter to be considered as a PIL and said that this Bhoomi Pujan is a violation of the unlock-2 rules of the central government. The UP government cannot relax the Central Rules. Gokhale said that mass prayers were also not allowed at Bakad. How can Bhoomi Pujan be allowed? He also expressed fears of corona infection.

Who are Saket Gokhale-
Saket Gokhale is close to outgoing Congress President and MP Rahul Gandhi. Saket Gokhale has several pictures with Rahul Gandhi. Saket Gokhale has also retweeted several tweets from Rahul Gandhi. In a conversation with ZEE NEWS, Saket Gokhale described himself as anti-BJP. However, earlier he was telling himself to be impartial. Saket also used sledging for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
A letter from Saket Gokhale has not yet been cleared by the Allahabad High Court Chief Justice for hearing. The Central Government has also been made a party to the Ram Mandir Trust in the petition.
Before Saket Gokhale, Congress leaders have often questioned the existence of Lord Sriram and the Ram Mandir. During the UPA government, the Congress had given an affidavit in the Supreme Court saying that there was no historical evidence of Lord Rama. Shashi Tharoor had said that good Hindus did not want to build ram mandir. For the disputed statements, Digvijay Singh said that Even Lord Rama did not want to have a temple in Ayodhya. Controversial leader Mani Shankar Aiyar had said that Dasrath’s palace had 10,000 rooms. It’s hard to tell ram who was born.
