President Droupadi Murmu on Wednesday said that the centuries-old aspirations for the construction of Ram Temple in Ayodhya have turned into a reality today.
The President’s remarks came while addressing a joint sitting of Parliament, which marked the commencement of the Budget Session.
“In the last 10 years, India saw the completion of several works towards national interest that had been awaited by the people of the country for decades.
There were aspirations for the construction of Ram temple for centuries, today it has become true,” she told the Parliament, on behalf of the Central government.
Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will present the interim Union Budget on Thursday. The last session before Lok Sabha polls expected to be held in April-May this year is to provide a total of eight sittings spread over 10 days.
The interim budget typically takes care of the fiscal needs of the intervening period until a government is formed after the Lok Sabha polls.
