Sumitra Mahajan says Ram temple should be built at Ayodhya


New Delhi, Jan 31 (IANS): Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan said on Wednesday that she was a "Ram Bhakt" and wanted a Ram temple to be built at Ayodhya.

Talking to reporters after an all-party meeting here ahead of the Budget session of Parliament, she said almost everyone assured her of one's cooperation in smooth running of the House which will witness the last session before the general election.

"There should be maximum discussion, and maximum number of issues should be raised by members. Parliament is meant for discussion and as parliamentarians, nation's interest should be a priority for us," she said.

Asked if government will bring a full Budget, she said: "It is for the government to answer. But yes, such things have happened in the past too."

Asked about her remarks as a Speaker and as BJP MP on the Ram temple, she said: "I am still the Lok Sabha Speaker. I would be able to comment as a BJP MP after 15th (February). But as a Ram bhakt I would say that all Ram bhakts want a Ram temple to be built in Ayodhya."

The session will commence on January 31 and will continue till February 13.

    Why is the matter in courts if these people wants to deliberately build on someone else land? Will she allow anybody to demolish her house and construct their house on her land?

    Nobody is stopping to construct a Temple, but not in the same piece of land where there was Masjid unless it is proved that there was temple before. If it cant be proved then let Masjid destroyer construct both Masjid as well Mandir, but Masjid at the same place and Mandir adjacent to other vacant land from 2.15 acre area with full boundary as separation and security to both sanctity.
