Congress and BJP clash over Ram mandir hoardings in poll-bound MP

A war of words has erupted in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh after the Congress objected to the ruling BJP putting up hoardings taking credit for the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya.The BJP said the Congress was “pained over the construction of the Ram temple”, while the opposition party accused the former of “going



astray from the devotion to Lord Ram”.

Earlier this week, the Indore unit of Congress complained to the Election Commission of India (ECI) that the BJP, in violation of the model code of conduct, used religious symbols during poll campaigning by showcasing the Ayodhya Ram temple and Mahakal Lok in Ujjain.
