'Anti-Sanatan Mindset': Sants Slam Congress Over Alleged Fish Feast During Sawan At Ajay Rai’s Ayodhya Welcome

A controversy has erupted in Ayodhya over an alleged fish feast organized during a welcome event for Uttar Pradesh Congress president Ajay Rai during the holy month of Sawan. The event took place at Arpit Lawn near Hanuman Garhi temple on Ekadashi. The sant community, which includes Mahant Dr Bharat Das and Jagadguru Paramhansacharya, strongly criticized the Congress, accusing them of disrespecting Sanatan sentiments.
