Lucknow: Congress leader Acharya Pramod Krishnam recently met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and extended an invitation for the foundation stone laying ceremony of Shri Kalki Dham in Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh, scheduled for February 19. Expressing gratitude, Krishnam appreciated the Prime Minister for accepting the invitation. The PM, in response, acknowledged it as a privilege to be part of the sacred occasion associated with faith and devotion.

Krishnam, who contested the 2019 Lok Sabha polls from Lucknow on a Congress ticket, has recently voiced criticism against certain decisions of the Congress leadership. Notably, he expressed dissatisfaction with the party's choice not to participate in the Ram temple consecration ceremony in Ayodhya on January 22. Despite his association with Congress, Krishnam's interactions with PM Modi for the invitation highlight the complex political dynamics and diverse perspectives within the Indian political landscape.

The invitation extended to PM Modi for the foundation stone ceremony underscores the broader socio-political significance of religious events, especially in Uttar Pradesh, a state with diverse cultural and religious sentiments. It also reflects the ongoing interplay of religious and political narratives in the country, where leaders from different parties engage in events that hold cultural and religious importance, contributing to the intricate tapestry of India's political spectrum.
