Chennai: RSS on Thursday demanded a legislation on the Ram Janmabhoomi issue and asked the Centre to hand over the land to the public for construction of a Ram temple instead of dragging the issue for long.

"The Allahabad High Court has clearly mentioned that there were Hindu idols at the spot and instead of dragging the issue for another five years, the government should legislate on the construction of temple," RSS spokesperson Ram Madav told reporters here.

"The government should legislate...It should create a consensus and hand over the land to the public...," he said.

Slamming the government for not allowing BJP Yuva Morcha`s `Ekta Yatra` to hoist the tricolour at Lal Chowk in Srinagar on January 26, he alleged that the Centre`s policy was encouraging anti-national forces.

"They should have allowed it to culminate. The government`s policy is wrong...," he said.

Besides, he also called for a thorough inquiry into the Malegaon blast in which six people were killed and over 100 injured. "The case is being conducted against Hindu groups. Therefore, we demand a thorough inquiry be conducted," he said.

He said these issues would be one of the major thrust areas during a statewide campaign in which around 10,000 RSS members would take part at 100 locations in Tamil Nadu from February 5 to 20.
