Andhra CM Orders CID Probe In Lord Ram Idol Desecration Case

Calling the desecration of Lord Ram's idol "unfortunate", Andhra Pradesh CM Jaganmohan Reddy has directed the CID to investigate the matter. Ordering to install a new idol, he has also asked for restoration of the temple premises. Moreover, he criticised the opposition for "playing politics with god" and requested the BJP to cancel its January 5 Ramateertham protest against the desecration issue. Earlier on December 29, 2020, Lord Ram's statue was dishonored in Vizianagaram district.
