According to TMC sources, neither Banerjee nor any representative of the෴ West Bengal government or the party will be present at the programme scheduled on January 22.
"There is no question of Mamata Banerjee or any other representative of the TMC attending the Ram Mandir inauguration at Ayodhya next month. We don't believe in mixing politics with religion," a senior party leader privy to th♐e development told PT🅷I.
The Ram temple will be inaugurated on January 22, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and mor🐻e than 6,000 people expected to attend the gr💜and "Pran Pratistha" ceremony.
CPI(M) general secretary Sitaram Yechury has turned down an invitation t🐭o attend the inauguration of the Ram temple in Ayodhya, the party said on Tuesday𓆉 while underlining its belief that religion is a personal choice.
