The Ram Lalla ‘Pran Pratishtha’ ceremony Monday was followed by a speech by PM Narendra Modi, where he talked about the construction of the temple marking the start of a new era. It was a moment, he said, that will be discussed even “1,000 years from now”. In episode 1385 of #CutTheClutter, Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta sits down with Political Editor D.K. Singh to discuss the message in Modi’s speech — the apparent one and the one between the lines — and key takeaways from who turned up for the event.
