In its manifesto, the BJP celebrates the realization of Ayodhya’s “centuries-old dream” with the completion of the Ram Temple while shifting focus towards comprehensive development for the city and its cultural landmarks.
The manifesto underscores the importance of preserving cultural heritage while outlining plans for the development of religious and tourist sites across the nation, inspired by the successful Kashi Vishwanath corridor model.
Recognizing Ayodhya’s newfound significance as a pilgrimage destination, the BJP pledges holistic development for the city, aligning with ongoing efforts to position it as a hub for religious tourism.
Beyond the temple, the manifesto outlines initiatives for manuscript preservation, digitization, and scholarship programs to delve into India’s rich cultural legacy. It also promises the establishment of a Bharatiya Sanskriti Kosh to safeguard and promote ancient Indian civilization and traditions.
In response to ideological calls, the manifesto proposes international conclaves on Bharatiya Knowledge Traditions and expedites the construction of the Yuge Yugeen Bharat National Museum to showcase India’s historical journey.
While highlighting the successful revocation of Article 370, the manifesto does not mention the safe return of Kashmiri Pandits, a departure from previous pledges.
By striking a balance between cultural preservation and modern development, the BJP’s manifesto reflects its commitment to shaping India’s future while honoring its past.
