UK MP calls out British media's biased reporting of Ram temple consecration

UK Member of Parliament Bob Blackman has raised concerns about the British media's biased reporting on the Ram temple consecration ceremony. Blackman expressed his disappointment in the UK Parliament, specifically criticizing the BBC for its coverage, which he claimed focused on the destruction of the Babri Masjid. He highlighted that the media neglected the historical context that a temple had existed at the disputed site for over 2000 years before the mosque was built and later demolished. Additionally, Blackman emphasized that Indian Muslims were allocated five acres of land in Ayodhya to construct a mosque.

Blackman shared his sentiments, stating, "Last week in Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh, the Ram Mandir was consecrated. This was of great joy to Hindus worldwide as being Lord Ram's birthplace." He expressed disappointment with the BBC's reporting, noting their omission of the temple's historical significance.

Furthermore, Blackman urged fellow parliament members to schedule a debate on the impartiality of the BBC and its failure to provide an accurate portrayal of global events. He emphasized the importance of addressing media bias and ensuring fair reporting.

Earlier in January, before the Pran Pratishtha ceremony of the Ram temple in Ayodhya, the Sanatan Sanstha of the UK (SSUK) organized celebrations at the British Parliament to welcome the temple's construction. During the event, bhajans were recited, reflecting the joyous sentiments surrounding the consecration.

The Ram temple consecration ceremony in Ayodhya occurred on January 22, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in attendance. The auspicious event drew hundreds of VVIPs, sages, and dignitaries. Since the temple's inauguration, over a million pilgrims and devotees have visited the holy site to seek blessings from Lord Ram Lalla. Blackman's criticism highlights the need for objective reporting and acknowledgement of historical nuances in media coverage.
