Union Minister Meenakshi Lekhi has hit out at opposition leaders amid the row over invites to the inauguration of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya next month. Responding to the CPIM's Brinda Karat - who this morning said her party will skip the ceremony because the BJP is "using religion as a political weapon" - Ms Lekhi told NDTV "those not going are weaponising religion... not us".
