Grand Temple for Sita Announced Ahead of Bihar Elections
NEW DELHI: In a significant announcement, Union Home Minister Amit Shah declared plans for a “grand temple” dedicated to Sita, recognizing the contributions of the people of Mithilanchal and Bihar to the development of Gujarat. This declaration comes as the Bihar assembly elections approach later this year.
Empowering Women Through Architecture
During a speech at the ‘Shashwat Mithila Mahotsav 2025’ event in Ahmedabad, Shah reflected on his previous visit to Bihar during the Lok Sabha elections, stating, “When I went to Bihar during the Lok Sabha elections, I had said Ram Mandir has been built; now it is the turn to build a grand temple of Sita Mata. The temple will give a message of woman power to the whole world and how life should be ideal in every way.”
Mithilanchal’s Rich Heritage
Shah emphasized the historical significance of Mithilanchal, quoting Mahatma Buddha, “As long as the people of Videha live together, no one can defeat them.” He praised Mithilanchal as a strong democratic force, contributing significantly to the nation.
Political Reactions and Upcoming Elections
As the announcement unfolds, the Congress party has accused the NDA of politicizing religion in Bihar ahead of the elections. Congress leader Tariq Anwar commented, “It appears the NDA is making political use of these ‘babas’, since it is wary of facing the people in elections with its dismal track record on governance.”
In addition to religious developments, Bihar has received notable attention in the recent Union Budget, with Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announcing various benefits for the state.
