Veteran Indian politician L.K. Advani, a key figure in the Ram Janmabhoomi movement, has been awarded the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian honor. Advani, a former Deputy Prime Minister and senior leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), played a crucial role in the Ram Rath Yatra that brought the movement for the Ram Temple to national prominence. The award comes just ten days after the consecration of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated Advani, praising his monumental contribution to India’s development. The honor recognizes Advani’s long political career and his role in shaping national politics.
