Those alleging corruption in Ayodhya land deal should approach court if they have evidence: VHP

The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) on Saturday said those who have accused the Ram temple trust of corruption in the land deal in Ayodhya should go to court if they have evidence to back their claims.

AAP leader Sanjay Singh and former SP MLA from Ayodhya Pawan Pandey had recently alleged that a piece of land worth Rs 2 crore was purchased by the Shriram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust in Ayodhya at an inflated price of Rs 18.5 crore.

Dismissing the allegations as ”baseless”, VHP’s joint general secretary Surendra Jain Saturday said the Shriram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust conducted the land deal with ”utmost honesty and transparency”.

”There is no scam in it. If there is anything wrong, why don’t they go to court? They should move the court if they have any evidence,” he told reporters here, lashing out at the Aam Aadmi Party, the Samajwadi Party, the Congress and other opposition parties which have been demanding a probe into the deal. Singh and Pandey had alleged money laundering in the deal, and demanded a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED). The Shriram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust’s general secretary Champat Rai strongly dismissed the allegations, claiming the land was purchased at a price much lower than the prevailing market rate.

AAP Rajya Sabha member Singh told the media last week that he was preparing to take the matter to court.

”We are still waiting for that. Why haven’t they approached the court so far? They should do it. Truth will come out before everybody,” the VHP general secretary said.

Pak clothing brand apologises after sharing morphed picture of Hindu God

Wednesday 23rd June 2021 06:24 EDT

Pakistani womenswear brand, Generation, had mocked Hinduism by putting up a morphed image of a Hindu deity in their office. In its post, Hindu Samata said, “This famous Pakistani brand put up a disrespectful poster mocking a Hindu deity in their office.

 Pakistan has blasphemy laws that only apply to non-Muslims.

Generation had morphed the image of the Hindu deity and replaced the ‘astras’ with laptop and other items. The desecration of the Hindu Goddess by a brand, founded by a Pakistani husband-wife duo named Saad and Nosheen Rahman, did not go unnoticed. Hindu rights activist points out the dual standards of the Pakistani justice system.

Clothing brand tenders apology

Following the outrage on social media, Generation tendered an apology. In a statement, the brand said, “A few days ago a grave oversight occurred at the Generation HQ. An ignorant and insensitive image became public that was hurtful to our patrons, especially for those that represent the white in our flag (referring to minorities).”

It further added, “We are so so sorry! We pledge to strive to be better, to make better and more informed choices. We also pledge to conduct regular sensitivity workshops at the HQ to learn more about the people we share our country with. We hope you can forgive us, and that we can grow to be more sensitive and mindful as a community.”
