Proposed model of Ram Temple
LUCKNOW: The Sangh Parivar has decided to widen its net for raising funds for the proposed Ram temple in Ayodhya with Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) all set to roll out its minority affiliate Muslim Rashtriya Manch (MRM) to mobilise funds from the Muslim community.
Come Friday, MRM chief Indresh Kumar would kick off the campaign from Lucknow by meeting people from the Muslim community at a host of functions with the overarching theme of ‘Ram Mandir Nidhi Samarpan Abhiyan’. Sources said, RSS seeks to rope in MRM cadre in other parts of the country too. RSS sources said, Kumar would stay in the state capital for two days during which he would meet people from various sections of society, essentially Muslims, while seeking financial support for the temple.
Uttarakhand CM Trivendra Singh Rawat
DEHRADUN: Uttarakhand chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat, in an exclusive conversation with TOI on Wednesday, said that “crystal-clear Ganga water would be the USP” of the Maha Kumbh festival slated to take place in Haridwar.
“Our USP for the Kumbh will be getting pilgrims to experience the crystal-clear water of Ganga river, which would be fit for bathing and drinking. The mesmerising view of Ganga river, clean water and beautiful ghats would be a lifelong cherishing experience for the pilgrims coming for the festival,” the chief minister said.
He added that an amount of around Rs 1,500 crore is being spent on Kumbh-related works in Haridwar. “Majority of the projects are complete whereas some are on the verge of completion. For instance, the flyover at Ranipur is being given finishing touches and it would be dedicated to people by the middle of the month. Covid-19 has delayed our works by around three months. However, I am happy
