"You, your party and your leaders never respected public sentiments. When the whole country was immersed in the devotion of Ramlala, Congress rejected the invitation for the Sri Ram Mandir Pran Pratishtha ceremony. Hatred against Sanatan Dharma and Lord Shri Ram is the reason for your party going into the abyss, " added Shivraj.

Praising the BJP for social service, Shivraj Singh Chouhan further added in his X and said, "Bharatiya Janata Party is a family that does not work for itself but for social service with the spirit of Antyodaya and this spirit of service makes every worker of Bharatiya Janata Party different."
