NEW DELHI: National Conference Chief Farooq Abdullah on Saturday said that Lord Rama doesn't only belong to Hindus but to everyone in the world.

"He (Lord Rama) has given a message of brotherhood, love, unity and helping each other. He has always said to uplift the fallen, irrespective of their religion or ethnicity. He has given a universal message. Today, as this temple is about to be inaugurated, I want to tell the people of the country to revive the brotherhood that is diminishing in our country. I want to tell everyone to maintain that brotherhood," Farooq said.

He also congratulated the people who have put efforts into making Ram temple in Ayodhya, saying that brotherhood in India is diminishing and there is a need to revive it.

The idol of Ram Lalla is scheduled to be installed in Ayodhya on January 22.
