VHS planning to set up a university in Bihar

The Rajya Sabha MP said for electoral success "it is essential that the ideology of Hindutva is never lost sight of".

Patna, October 16: Bihar unit of Virat Hindustan Sangam (VHS) planning to set up a university at Sitamarhi.

The university will serve as a centre for Indian renaissance where ancient Indian learning will be promoted alongside imparting of contemporary vocational training.

Senior BJP leader Subramanian Swamy said the construction of the proposed Ram temple in Ayodhya will commence soon and it will be ready to receive devotees by next Diwali.

Hurdles in the way of the proposed Ram temple are being removed, Swami said without elaborating.

The Rajya Sabha MP said for electoral success "it is essential that the ideology of Hindutva is never lost sight of".

Subramanian Swamy further said that VHS also proposed to undertake similar projects at other places of historical importance in all districts across the state.

"Construction of the temple is likely to begin sooner than later. This week we will be celebrating Diwali and by next Diwali the Ram temple is likely to be ready to receive devotees," he said addressing a seminar here organised by the Bihar unit of Virat Hindustan Sangam (VHS), which he has floated.

Swami said VHS would make efforts for the construction of a grand temple dedicated to Lord Ram's consort Sita at Sitamarhi in north Bihar, believed to be her birthplace. "It is impossible to think of Maryada Purushottam Sri Rama without his companion Jagat Janani Janaki".
