Jitendra Awhad, a leader from the NCP-Sharad Pawar faction, sparked controversy by stating that "Lord Ram was a non-vegetarian." He made this remark while addressing an event in Maharashtra's Shirdi on Wednesday.
After the controversial statement, BJP leader Ram Kadam hit back at the NCP leader for disrespecting the emotions of crores of devotees of Lord Ram and filed a complaint to register FIR against Awhad for his statement about Lord Ram being a 'non-vegetarian'.
