A dispute erupted in the Uttarakhand Assembly during discussions on the Uniform Civil Code Bill when Congress MLA Adesh Singh Chauhan questioned the BJP about the color of the Ram Lalla idol in Ayodhya. Chauhan claimed, "According to Hindu scriptures, Ram was 'sanwala' (dusky), but you people made the Ram Lalla idol black." BJP ministers countered the remark, defending Lord Ram, while Speaker Ritu Khanduri intervened, urging focus on the UCC. The Ram temple in Ayodhya was inaugurated on January 22, attended by PM Modi, marking a significant event in India's cultural landscape.
