There is Ram’s maternal grandmother house, mother Kaushalya’s maternal home, the only temple in the whole world, but Raman ji did not even look once in 15 years. It is a village of Jharkhand governor Ramesh Bais but they never took care, only desired to get votes whether it is in the name of Ram or in the name of cow”.
“Our government has started the construction of Ram Van Gaman Path Tourism, in which nine places have been identified in the first phase. Our work is going on continuously, so why are they suffering? They had a chance for 15 years, while in our own four years, two years have passed in COVID-19, yet we are working continuously.”CM Baghel said.
“They can ask for votes in the name of the cow, but cannot serve the cow. We will go on improving that where there is a need for improvement,” he added. (ANI)
