New Delhi, October 1

In what was anticipated to be a big bang event ended on a note so silent as deafening. Scores of media personnel who descended at the book release event by RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat were left disappointed as the principal participants preferred to mouth inane statements rather than raise political temperatures.

The occasion was the launch of coffee table book "Hindutva ke Purodha" on the life of the top Vishwa Hindu Parishad leader Ashok Singhal — chief architect of the Rama Janmabhoomi movement — on his 89th birthday.

Today, apart from a random statement by former VHP chief Vishnu Hari Dalmia urging Home Minister Rajnath Singh, who was also present on the stage, to tell PM Narendra Modi to gift Ram Temple to Singhal on his birthday, there was no other word on the issue, important to Sangh and its affiliates.
