A glimpse of Sant convention: ‘Modi is avatar of Ram; courts are anti-temple; no more dialogue’

Newsroom, Nov 4: As part of Sangh Parivar’s preparation for 2019 Lok Sabha polls, a two-day convention of Akhil Bharatiya Sant Samiti has dropped hints of an undemocratic agitation in the name of Ram Mandir. The convention was held on Saturday and Sunday in the national capital days after the RSS said the government should acquire land and hand it over for construction of Ram temple at Ayodhya.

While one of the speakers called Prime Minister Narendra Modi “an incarnation of Lord Ram”, another said the judiciary won’t be of help as it was full of “anti-temple people”.

Swami Chinmayananda, who was a Union minister in the Atal Bihari Vajpayee government, said “the possibility of any peace talk or dialogue with the opposite parties has ended”.

Jain muni Guptisagar, from Haryana, said, “Jo Ram ka nahin woh mere kisi kaam ka nahin (The one who doesn’t care for Ram is of no use to me).” Mentioning the PM directly, he said, “Modiji sansad mein sachcha parvan chahiye, 56-inch seene walon ka samvidhan chahiye (Modiji, we need a truthful testimony in Parliament, a sign of resolve from those with 56-inch chests).”

Guptisagar added that the judiciary would not allow a temple because anti-temple people were sitting there for the past 70 years.

Swami Pragyanand of Uttarakhand urged that Ram temple in Ayodhya be built on the lines of Gujarat’s Somnath temple. “We should here today force a commitment from the Modi government to ensure that a Ram temple is built at Ram Janmabhoomi.”

Swami Vivekanandji Maharaj said there couldn’t be a more ideal situation to ensure this than having “Ram bhakt Narendra Modi” as the PM and another “Ram bhakt”, Yogi Adityanath, as the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh. “I feel that in devotion, Modiji is the incarnation of Lord Ram. If Ram temples are not built in his regime, it would be surprising.”

Swami Jitendranand Saraswati, who came from Vrindavan and is the national general secretary of the All India Sant Samiti, said if Muslims continued to have Sharia courts, the Sant Samiti would introduce “kesariya (saffron)” courts, adding that it was “not the responsibility of Hindus alone to follow the Constitution”. Saraswati added that they were right to ask the judge who gave the order on the temple about his priorities as “he was serving as a judge on salary is given from public money”.

Swami Chinmayanand said “the historic mandate” that the BJP had got in 2014 “should not go in vain”, and that if no decision was taken on Ram temple, it would create a crisis in society’s faith in the RSS and BJP.

Bengaluru, Feb 29: A Lingayat seer on Friday threatened to get 10 BJP MLAs to quit if Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa does not make MLA Dattatreya Patil Revoor a minister soon.

"If Yediyurappa does not make BJP's Gulbarga South MLA Dattatreya Patil Revoor a minister, I will get 10 ruling party legislators resign and reduce the government to a minority, forcing the Chief Minister to resign," said Srishaila Saranga mutt seer Deshikendra Swami at a meeting in Kalaburagi on Friday.

Addressing a gathering of the Lingayat community, to which Revoor belongs, the seer said although he wanted Yediyurappa to complete the remaining 3-year term in office and the BJP to return to power after the next elections, it would be difficult for Yediyurappa to continue if Revoor is not made a minister.

"Yediyurappa will be in office for the next three years if he makes Revoor minister. If not, I will ask him (latter) also to resign, as does not need to be in politics anymore because he has a house, many acres of agricultural land and is very rich," the seer told the gathering in Kannada.

In his nomination to contest in the May 2018 assembly elections, Revoor (37) declared in an affidavit Rs 17-crore assets, including immovable properties.

Wishing Yediyurappa to remain in office for the next three years and return as Chief Minister, the seer said if Yediyurappa is forced to quit, then the Lingayat community would not get an opportunity to have its leader as Chief Minister again for at least 30 years.

Yediyurappa, whose constituency is Shikaripura in Shivamogga district, is considered the tallest Lingayat leader of the politically powerful community, which accounts for 18% of the 6.5-crore state's population.

Though a dozen BJP legislators won from the erstwhile Hyderabad-Karnataka region in the May 2018 Assembly elections, only Prabhu Chauhan from the adjacent Bidar district was made minister for animal husbandry.

The Saranga mutt seer’s threat comes a month after Veerashaiva Lingayat Panchamasali seer Swami Vachananda, dared Yediyurappa to make 3 of the community legislators ministers ahead of the second cabinet expansion on February 6.

At a Lingayat gathering in the state's Davengere district on January 15, Vachananda told Yediyurappa to make party's Bilgi legislator Murgesh Nirani Minister, failing which the community would withdraw its support to the ruling party.

Hiryur is about 300km northwest of the southern state's capital Bengaluru.

Ticking off the young seer, a defiant Yediyurappa, however, threatened to walk out of the meeting if he was blackmailed for making Lingayat MLAs ministers.

"You cannot threaten me saying your sub-sect (Veera Shaiva) community would not support the BJP in the next assembly or Lok Saba elections, due in 2023 and 2024," retorted Yediyurappa, reasserting his status as the community's strongman in the state.

In the second cabinet expansion, only 10 newly elected legislators who defected from the Congress and the Janata Dal-Secular (JD-S) were made ministers, leaving 6 posts vacant in the 34-member ministry.

In the first cabinet expansion on August 20, 2019, 17 party legislators were made ministers. Nirani and others, who were present on the dais, pacified Yediyurappa to take his seat and requested the seer to avoid making political speech on such occasions.

"The chief minister threatened to resign than succumb to pressures from religious or community followers," a party official told media.
