New Delhi. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, Sonia Gandhi and party leader in Lok Sabha Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury have been invited for the consecration ceremony of Ram temple to be held in Ayodhya on January 22.
Sources said that Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust has sent them an invitation, but these senior Congress leaders are not likely to attend the function. He said that personal invitations have been sent to Kharge, Gandhi and Chaudhary and former Prime Ministers Manmohan Singh and HD Deve Gowda have also been invited for the function.
Sources said that a delegation of people associated with the trust gave these invitations and invitations are likely to be sent to other opposition leaders also in the coming days. The Trust said that apart from the revered saints of different traditions, invitations have been extended to all the prominent persons who have brought glory to the country in different fields.
The Trust has said that a ‘tent city’ has been set up in the new Tirtha Kshetra Puram (Bagh Bijaisi) in which six tube wells, six kitchens and a hospital with 10 beds have been built. About 150 doctors from across the country have agreed to provide their services in this hospital on rotation basis.
The trust has said that around 4,000 saints from different sects have been invited to participate in the ceremony.
