The Ram Janmabhoomi and Babri mosque dispute in Uttar Pradesh's Ayodhya dominated Indian politics for three decades, culminating in the grand inauguration of the Ram temple by Prime Minister Narendra Modi months ahead of the Lok Sabha polls. It also became the main poll plank of the BJP. But the Faizabad constituency, which comprises Ayodhya, was won by Samajwadi Party's veteran leader Awadhesh Prasad. The Dalit leader defeated two-time BJP MP Lallu Singh with a margin of 54,000 votes. In a setback to the saffron party, the SP won a total of 37 Lok Sabha seats in UP. In this conversation with Newslaundry, Prasad spoke about his victory in Ayodhya, the “real Ram bhakts”, BJP's politics vs Samajwadi Party's PDA, and the problems of the people of Ayodhya.Tune in.

This was a very sombre Republic Day, coming in a few days after the inauguration of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya on January 22, 2024, churning up questions on the secular nature of our country. The inauguration of the Ram Mandir marks a significant chapter in our country's history. The temple's construction replaced the 16th-Century Babri masjid, which was demolished by Hindu mobs in 1992, leading to nationwide riots and the tragic loss of nearly 2,000 lives, after the Supreme court allowed it. This became a national event, even though we have a sizable population of Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, among others.  Suno India's Sneha Richhariya and Menaka Rao took interviews of young persons in their 20s, all of who were born after the Babri Masjid demolition. We attempt to understand what they think about this national event, what it symbolises, and how they understand secularism. See sunoindia.in/privacy-policy for privacy information.

Did you know that some of the most beautiful poetry about Lord Ram has been written in Urdu?  While the Ram Temple consecration was a watershed moment for many Hindus across the country, we felt that the mainstream news coverage was limited to party politics and communal remarks. But in this episode of Urdunama, we want to use Ram as a unifying force. Let us embark on a fascinating journey to explore the rich tapestry of Urdu poetry dedicated to Lord Ram, a figure revered in Hinduism. Often shrouded in the misconception that Urdu belongs solely to one religion, this episode challenges that notion by showcasing the beautiful confluence of cultures and perspectives within the language. Listen till the end as Fabeha Syed reads iconic poems about Ram's 'vanvaas,' Diwali, and Ayodhya, by poets like Altaf Hussain, Arsh Malsiyani, and Javed Akhtar.

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi has inaugurated a temple to the Hindu deity Ram in a ceremony in the northern town of Ayodhya. The temple is controversial as it was built on grounds where a mosque stood for centuries, before it was torn down in 1992 by Hindu zealots incited by members of Modi's party, the BJP.  The mosque's destruction triggered the worst religious riots since India's independence, killing 2,000 people, most of them Muslims. Today, after winning a court battle over the Ram temple, Hindu nationalist groups are now filing lawsuits against other historic mosques and Muslim sites elsewhere in India.

The bench has referred the matter to the Chief Justice of India to consider placing it before a larger bench.Congress leader Rahul Gandhi today stated that it was difficult for the party to accept the invitation for Ram Temple inauguration as the "BJP-RSS have given it an election flavour".
