With poll notification out, Telangana set for three-cornered fight
With the issue of notification, the process of receiving nominations has been set in motion. April 25 is the last date for filing of nominations.
AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Monday lambasted RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat for his statement that “only Ram Mandir and nothing else” will be built at the disputed site in Ayodhya.
“On what basis is RSS Chief saying nothing but Ram Temple will be built there. Is he Chief Justice or does he know what would the decision be?” said the livid chief of the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM).
“On what basis VHP’s Surinder Jain said construction will begin on 18th Oct 2018? Do they have some inside information?” he said further.

Owaisi had earlier accused the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) of “playing with fire” on the issue of Ram temple with its “obnoxious” statements.
Speaking at an event of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) in Udupi in Karnataka last month, Bhagwat had said that the Ram temple will be constructed at the site of Ramjanmabhoomi and nothing else will be built.
“It will be constructed in its original form and with the same stones. It will be built under the leadership of those who led this movement and have been holding its flag for 20-25 years,” he had said.
