“Will Stay Away From Ayodhya Event As COVID-19 Precaution”: Uma Bharti


Uma Bharti said she had informed senior officials that she should be kept out of the list of guests.

New Delhi:

Veteran BJP leader Uma Bharti, a stalwart of the Ram temple movement, tweeted today that she would travel to Ayodhya but avoid the groundbreaking event on Wednesday as a precaution against the coronavirus. She said she would visit the site of the temple only after everyone left.

In several tweets this morning, Uma Bharti said she felt worried about those attending the event after Home Minister Amit Shah and other top leaders contracted COVID-19. The Home Minister tweeted yesterday that he had tested positive for the virus and was shifted reportedly to Medanta hospital near Delhi.

“When I heard about Amit Shah and other BJP leaders testing positive I was worried about those attending the Ayodhya event, especially PM Modi,” tweeted the 61-year-old BJP leader.

Uma Bharti said she would travel from Bhopal to Uttar Pradesh by train and had decided to skip the rituals at Ayodhya to protect Prime Minister Narendra Modi and “thousands” of others at the site of the temple.

During the “Bhoomi Pujan”, she said, she would be at another spot on the banks of the river Saryu.

“I will leave Bhopal this evening and until I reach Ayodhya tomorrow evening, I may be exposed to the infection. In this situation, I will stay away from the place where PM Modi and others will be present. I will reach there only after everyone has left the spot,” tweeted the former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister.

Uma Bharti said she had informed senior officials connected to the Ram temple event and also the Prime Minister’s office that she should be kept out of the list of guests.
