Commenting on Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel’s statement on Lord Ram, former chief minister Raman Singh said Congress had divided Lord Ram.

What Lord Ram meant to the BJP is totally different than that of the Congress’s concept about the Lord Ram, he said.

He was talking to media after arriving to participate in the BJP state-level meeting at BJP state headquarters, Kushabhau Thakre premises on Thursday.

On Congress stance, he said, it is the same Congress which in the apex court had given affidavit challenging very existence of Lord Ram and paved way for destruction of Ram-Setu, is now uttering Ram-Ram’.

Elaborating further, he said, just before the end, at least in last moment, they (Congress) is remembering God’s name.

On Gauthan, he said with   existence of no system, it has become a venue for highest number of death of cows. Offence should be registered for the criminal act. Responsibility should also be fixed.

On foot-march of BJP MPs, Raman Singh said all of them are active and travelling up to 20 kilometres per day on foot. MPs are using vehicle to cover long distance . He added that no security has been provided for foot march in Naxal areas.

Raman Singh, on farmers, said it is failure on part of the state government that it could not ensure benefits of 'PM Samman Nidhi’ to farmers, not even first installment, when already it is being implemented across the country.
