National Conference president Farooq Abdullah expresses displeasure over BJP's invitations for the Ram temple consecration, saying Lord Ram belongs to all and doesn't require an invite. He questions the formality, stating anyone wanting to visit the temple can do so freely. Earlier supportive of the temple, Abdullah emphasizes Lord Ram's universal significance. While political figures like Sonia Gandhi decline, Serum Institute's Adar Poonawalla accepts the invitation. Opposition leaders show mixed responses, with Akhilesh Yadav and Arvind Kejriwal accepting, while others label it a BJP event. The ceremony is set for January 22 in Ayodhya.
