Ayodhya: Congress leader Acharya Pramod Krishnam on Monday urged the Opposition 'not to oppose Lord Ram, but oppose a political party because it can be defeated, not Lord Ram'.
 
"Those people who are opposing, I want to tell them this that they should oppose a political party, not Lord Ram. One can defeat a political party but cannot defeat Lord Ram, Sanatan Dharma and Bharat. And Lord Ram is India's soul," he told reporters here.
