Data Points with Context "Religious building in India"

The opening of a grand temple dedicated to the Hindu god Lord Ram is set to take place in Ayodhya, India, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi leading the inauguration ceremony. The temple's construction has been a 35-year-old promise of Modi's Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), marking a contentious political issue and symbolizing Hindu resurgence after centuries of perceived subjugation. The temple site was historically disputed between Hindus and Muslims, resulting in violence when a Hindu mob destroyed a mosque in 1992. The Supreme Court ruled in favor of Hindus in 2019, allocating the land for the temple and a separate plot for Muslims. The inauguration is seen as a significant religious and political event, with Modi framing it as a historic moment and urging people to celebrate. The temple, funded by donations, is in its first phase, with the completion of the second phase expected by December 2025. The event has triggered an emotional response among Hindus, but opposition parties have declined invitations, viewing it as a political event. Muslim groups, though initially unhappy with the court verdict, now express acceptance, emphasizing the ongoing construction of a mosque nearby.
