Earlier in the day when he was, in the temple town of Uttar Pradesh PM Modi reflected upon the construction of the temple and its symbolic significance.
"He mentioned that there were concerns that the temple, which some believed could spark controversy actually represents peace, patience, harmony and unity, within the nation.
"There was a time when people used to say 'If the Ram Mandir is built it will ignite a firestorm.' These individuals failed to grasp the essence of Indias fabric. The construction of this temple dedicated to Lord Ram is a symbol of peace, patience, mutual harmony and coordination within society. We can observe that this construction is not causing any unrest but rather generating energy " he emphasized.
PM Modi concluded by emphasizing that the temple serves as an embodiment of our consciousness, in the form of Ram."
