BJP demolished 300 temples in Gujarat says congress candidate | TwoCircles.net
New Delhi: Congress party is all set to expose BJPs Hindutva at its hinterland. The party has decided to highlight the issue of demolition of over 290 temples in Gujarat, particularly in Gandhinagar. Modi government had demolished over 290 big and small temples in the name of development causing much resentment in the local people. BJPs prime ministerial candidate L K Advani is seeking re-election from Gandhinagar.
Local citizens had expected that Advani would prevent Modi from irreligious demolition but the local MP never showed his displeasure against Modis bulldozers. Till now, Advani has not uttered a word of sympathy nor has promised to rebuild the demolished temples.
Talking to TwoCircles.net on phone the congress candidate from Gandhinagar Suresh Kumar Patel said: This is very emotional issue for us. These people have demolished 300 temples and now they are talking of construction of temple in Ayodhya. He said that people of Gujarat are very angry over the anti religious activity of Gujarat government. Even Advani did not speak a word when temples were razed he said adding the leader of opposition rarely visit the constituency.
Claiming that this time Advani would face defeat by Congress, he said he was a local and now the local people would no more tolerate the double standards of BJP. Patel is currently an MLA from Kalol near Gandhinagar.
Here too a senior leader of the party told this correspondent that the congress would also raise the issue at national level to expose BJP
Modi, considered the poster boy of Hindutva, had launched a demolition drive against illegal structures including temples in November last. Big protest were taken out against Modi over the issue
A Mandir Bachao Sangharsh Samiti was also formed but Modi bulldozer stopped only after demolition worked was completed. Sunil Oza, a former legislator of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) who later formed Maha Gujarat Janata Party (MJP), said at that time that: Modi is a true successor of Mahmud Gazni, Babar and Aurangzeb.

When the same BJP govt demolished a dargah in baroda a few years back, there were riots, people were stabbed etc and all hell broke loose abt BJP's state sponsored terrorism. nobody bothered to check that the courts had cleared the demolition of the dargah and along with it many hindu temples were demolished too.
All politicians are the same, and people should not look at things through colored glasses. one day they'll oppose one thing and the other they'll do it themselves.
Lets demolish all illegal temples to pave way for development.
