On Mallikarjun Kharge, Sonia Gandhi & Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury declining the invitation to 'pranpratishtha' ceremony of Ram Temple in Ayodhya, Union Minister Smriti Irani says, "Congress party's anti-Lord Ram face is before the nation. It is no surprise that under the leadership of Sonia Gandhi, the party that had filed an affidavit before the court that Lord Ram is a fictional character, its leadership declined the invitation to the 'pranpratishtha' of Ram Temple...Under the leadership of Sonia Gandhi and Congress, INDI Alliance has insulted Sanatan Dharma again and again. Now, the declining of the invitation to the 'pranpratishtha' by leaders of the INDI Alliance reflects their anti-Sanatan mindset."
