RSS, VHP To Not Portray Ayodhya Verdict As A Defeat For Muslims, If The SC Rules In Favour Of Hindus

The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) will not be celebrating the decision of Supreme Court (SC) in the Ayodhya Ram Janmabhoomi land title suit, even if the decision comes in the favour of the Hindu parties, reports The Hindu.

An RSS official lauded the decision and said that it is in line with the Sangh's history in which it has never celebrated its victories. He asked, "Have you seen us celebrating after the abrogation of Article 370?"

The decision by the RSS and the VHP was taken in a two-day meeting of the various organisations affiliated to the Sangh Parivar. The senior leaders of the Sangh Parivar have also expressed confidence that if the decision came in favour of Hindus, then the construction of the temple for Lord Rama could begin as soon as January 2020.
