Mathura, December 2: The Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha (ABHM) on Thursday expressed displeasure over UP Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya’s tweet on a temple in Mathura and said the BJP was only concerned about securing votes in the upcoming elections. The comment came a day after Maurya’s tweet read, “Construction of grand temples in Ayodhya and Kashi is underway, and preparations underway for one in Mathura (Ayodhya Kashi grand temple construction is in progress for Mathura).” Mathura is believed to be the birthplace of Lord Krishna.
The temple site, which has been the subject of several lawsuits, is believed to be located inside an Aurangzeb-era mosque in Mathura and shares its premises with a major temple. After objections were raised by the Mathura district administration, the ABHM canceled its proposed program for the installation and ‘jalabhisheka’ of Lord Krishna’s idol at the “actual birthplace” of the deity on 6 December, which the Hindu Mahasabha claims. It is inside the mosque.
The district administration had imposed prohibitory orders under section 144 of CrPC on November 28. “The truth is Ayodhya, Kashi or Mathura, none of this has ever been on the agenda of the BJP. But after winning the Ayodhya case, BJP started showing interest in our campaign to remove the Shahi Idgah in Mathura.
Meanwhile, speaking about his Wednesday tweet, Maurya said, “A grand temple is being constructed at Ram Janmabhoomi. A grand corridor is being built on Baba Vishwanathji in Kanshi and it is the wish of all Krishna devotees that a grand temple should be constructed at Krishna Janmabhoomi in Mathura and I have only expressed it. Asked whether it would be an election issue, he said, “Krishna temple is not an election issue, like Ram temple in Ayodhya or Baba Vishwanathji in Varanasi are not election issues.” ,
