Ram Setu: Court rejects petition against M K

Ayodhya, Sep 27: A court has dismissed a petition of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) seeking registeration of a case against Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M Karunanidhi for passing critical remarks on Lord Ram.

The order was passed yesterday by the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Faizabad on a petition filed by Mahant Kanhaiyya Das on behalf of the VHP.

''We cannot forgive the TN CM for passing ignominious remarks about Lord Ram, the icon of the Hindu Community. Now, we would file a petition before the Allahabad High Court,'' VHP state media in charge Sharad Sharma told mediapersons here.

Meanwhile, Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Nyas president Mahant Nritya Gopal Das said ''the indignified comments of the DMK chief has hurt the religious sentiments of crores of Hindus.

The ignoramous people, who are challenging the existence of Lord Ram ought to go through Ramayan properly.'' He underlined ''...those sitting on dignified posts should not pass such unholy comments.''
