TMC MP Kirti Azad's Remarks on Lord Shri Ram and Mother Sita Spark Controversy

Politics has heated up amid talk of Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav visiting the Ram temple in Ayodhya. After the BJP reacted to this, now Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Kirti Azad has made such a statement about Lord Shri Ram and Mother Sita, which can cause controversy. He questioned on Tuesday (10 November 2026) whether there is only one God in the country? Kirti Azad said that there are crores of gods and goddesses in the country, so why talk of considering only Lord Ram as the greatest? Kirti Azad said that he will not go to Ayodhya. Explaining the reason, he mentioned the episode of Ramayana in which Lord Ram separated the mother from the house even after Sita's ordeal. The TMC MP said that Mother Sita had to leave the house despite the ordeal. Not only this, she also had to live separately with her two young children. In such a situation, the question arises as to what extent it should be called Maryada and on the basis of which Purushottam Ram Yadav's visit to the temple should be explained to Akhilesh Yadav.
