'Ram Mandir at Ayodhaya is RSS's next goal'

Jammu, Jan 22: Calling all Hindus, including Sikhs, Jains and Budhists to be united and shun casteism, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has said its next goal would be the construction of the ''Ram Mandir'' at Ayodhya.

Addressing a Hindu Mahasammelan on the birth anniversary of second Sarsanghchalak Madavrao Sadashivrao Golvalkar here yesterday, RSS Sarkarivah Dr Mohan Rao Bhagawat said, ''People should go with a message from this celebration that it is a beginning of our next goal, that is construction of Ram Mandir at Ayodhya.'' It is high time for all the Hindus, including Sikhs, Budhists, Jains and other religious factions, to be united and shun casteism, which has divided society, once and for all, Dr Bhagawat said.

''Those, who are tring to invade Hindu culture are demons and we have to give a befitting reply to them unitedly,'' he added.

Cautioning the people against social evils, the RSS leader said, ''These are the biggest hurdles for the progress of any nation''.

''Hindus must understand that the entire community is one and no body is inferior or superior on the basis of caste or creed,'' he added.

Terming the Jammu and Kashmir an integral part of India, RSS Sarkarivah warned the militants as well as Pakistan of dire consequences for their misadventures.
