The groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of the temple took place on Wednesday in Ayodhya with Prime Minister Narendra Modi performing the ‘bhoomi pujan' of the temple, bringing to fruition the BJP's ‘mandir' movement that defined its politics for three decades and took it to the heights of power.

India's character is being raped by Modi and BJP. The Godi media is shamelessly playing along and the bhakts of course are happy. This is a sad day for any true hindu and for India.

印度的特色被莫迪和人民党强奸了，媒体无耻地配合，对于真正的印度教徒和印度人来说，这是悲哀的一天。

sunil awasthi

Looks like you are born after the era of Congress. During Indira, Rajiv, Narsimha and MM there use to be Iftar Parties for almost 30 days in parliament and by parliamentarians of Congress. I have not seen even one Diwali, Holi, Dusshera, Onam, Baisakhi, Chat celebrations in Parliament, was that the real character of India? I think you are blind support or plain ignorant.

看来你是在国大党执政时代之后出生的。在英迪拉、拉吉夫、Narsimha和曼莫汉·辛格执政期间，在议会，国大党议员举行了将近30天的开斋晚宴，但是排灯节、胡里节、Dusshera、欧南节、拜萨哈节，什么庆祝活动都没有，这就是真正的印度特色吗?我认为你要么是盲目支持国大党，要么是愚昧无知。

Some would argue Nepal is the only self-described Hindu nation in the world, but India should also declare the same officially. 、

有些人会说尼泊尔是世界上唯一自诩的印度教国家，但印度也应该正式宣布自己是印度教国家。

Save India for the INDIANS.

Jai Shree Ram!!! Finally where Shree Ram was born got its temple when Mugals destroyed original temple and built their Mosque. Moguls destroyed many temples and now justice is been done.

罗摩万岁！终于在罗摩诞生的地方为他重建神庙了，原来的神庙被莫卧儿统治者摧毁了，现在正义得到了伸张。

Mamta Singh

Jai Shree Ram!

罗摩万岁！

Venky

THis temple disrespects Ram. This temple was built by illegally demolishing a mosque and riots that killed thousands. There is blood on the hands of the BJP and it's allies.

非法拆除了一座清真寺，造成数千人死亡，这座寺庙才得以开始重建，这种做法对罗摩不敬。人民党及其盟友的双手沾满鲜血。

finally shriram got his rightful AYODHYA

罗摩神庙终于合法在阿约提亚落脚了

Joey Benra

STOP WASTING TIME ON TEMPLES, CRICKET, BOLLYWOOD, etc. We INDIANS should start looking forward to BUILD UP our nation. Look around us ... Other S.E. Asian countries have moved up 100 yrs ahead of us. And here we are ...... trying to survive in a 4th world nation with no JOBS, no CLEAN DRINKING WATER, no MODERN TOILETS, no HOPES IN THE HORIZON.

别再把时间浪费在寺庙、板球、宝莱坞上了。我们印度人应该开始期待建设国家。看看我们周围，其他东南亚国家已经领先我们100年了。我们没有工作，没有干净的饮用水，没有厕所，看不到希望，印度已经沦为第四世界国家了。

Vettri Vel

Ram means love Ram means truth Ram means Justice & peace, Ram lives in every soul and every inch of India.

罗摩代表爱，代表真理，代表正义与和平，罗摩存在于印度的每一个灵魂中，每一寸土地上。

Have you noticed the slavery and apartheid inside the hindu society? This brahmin supremacist religion has enslaved and tortured lower caste people for millenia. Your ram is not for all.

你注意到印度社会内部的奴隶制和种族隔离了吗?婆罗门至上主义的宗教奴役、折磨低种姓长达千年之久。

Ram Bhakt

How come these Indian Americans not move back to India for the love of Sri Ram and their motherland? By staying away from India, they are showing that their true allegiance is not with India but with USA and dollars. Shameless bigots.

这些印裔美国人这么爱罗摩和他们的祖国，为什么不搬回印度呢?他们远离印度，表明他们真正效忠的不是印度，而是美国和美元。无耻的偏执狂。

Lara Lar

Why you are jealous of Indian American,atleast they are celebrating the day, there is nothing to do with making or not making money.

你为什么嫉妒印裔美国人，他们只是在庆祝这一天，这与赚钱或不赚钱没有关系。

Ram bhakt

Not jealous. I hope their love for India is true and they stay in their motherland. Bigotry is what I am against.
