Friday witnessed a charged BJYM protest at Sonia Gandhi’s Delhi abode, spotlighting the explosive Sabarimala gold theft saga. Anurag Thakur, flanked by Kerala BJYM chief Manu Prasad and national secretary Rohit Chahal, led a robust cadre in demanding CBI scrutiny of the temple’s vanishing riches.
The rally assailed Congress’s nonchalance, portraying it as tacit endorsement of sacrilege against Ayyappa’s abode. Protesters’ slogans underscored intolerance for faith’s desecration, with Thakur invoking the gold’s role as a beacon of devotees’ piety and India’s spiritual continuum.
Thakur minced no words: the alleged theft signifies betrayal beyond bureaucracy, potentially tied to gifts for Sonia Gandhi. He pressed for accountability—who’s liable, investigation’s trajectory, and suspect handling—rejecting all laxity or graft.
Prasad clarified the drive’s democratic ethos, rooted in safeguarding beliefs and probity. Thakur indicted Congress’s legacy of national and now religious looting, imperiling Hindu ethos. Remedies sought: unbiased CBI probe, retributive justice, and ironclad temple protections.
BJP’s zero-tolerance faith policy shone through, with threats of mass awakening if truth evades. This Delhi dharna amplifies Kerala’s temple tussle, merging piety with partisanship in a narrative poised for wider resonance.
