Congress MP Shashi Tharoor stated, "I would love to visit the Ram Temple one day, but not on the day of the grand political extravaganza or before the 2024 elections." Tharoor emphasized viewing temples as places for spiritual connection rather than political platforms, saying, "Speaking for myself as a Hindu, I see a temple as a place to connect with the divine rather than a stage for political theatre." The invitations to Congress leaders for the Ram Temple event have caused internal debates, with Tharoor advocating for individual decisions. He urged against political interpretations of personal choices and highlighted the need for each invitee to make decisions without being labeled "anti-Hindu" or accused of "playing into the BJP's hands."
