"Modi Inaugurates Ayodhya Ram Mandir, Marking Historic Moment for India"
TL;DR Summary
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir in Ayodhya, a Hindu temple built on the site of a 16th century mosque demolished in 1992, marking the fulfillment of a long-awaited Hindu nationalist ambition. The ceremony, attended by high-profile politicians and celebrities, has divided the country, with many Hindus celebrating while the minority Muslim population sees it as a painful reminder of religious divisions under Modi's rule. The temple's inauguration has sparked widespread media coverage and drawn criticism from a US-based Hindu group, accusing Modi of "weaponizing" Hinduism for political gain.
