Former Bihar Chief Minister and BJP-JDU government ally Jitan Ram Manjhi have once again given a controversial statement regarding Lord Ram.
Hindustani Awam Morcha (HUM) chief Jitan Ram Manjhi has said that he does not believe in Lord Ram.
He described himself as a descendant of Mata Sabri but considers Maryada Purushottam as a fictional character.
Jitan Ram Manjhi, while talking about the problem of untouchability, has given this controversial statement about Lord Ram.
In a program on Thursday, Jitan Ram Manjhi questioned why those who believe in Ram don't eat the leftovers of (Dalits). He said that big people have divided people for power.

Jitan Ram Manjhi said, “We believe in Tulsidas Ji, we believe in Valmiki Ji. But we do not believe in Ram, but if you say so, we believe in Ram.
Ram is our mother, Sabri, whom we call, had not seen the story, Ram had eaten Sabri's liar, if we are touched today, then you eat, today you do not eat our touched.
That's what you talk about Ram. Big people in their interests have divided us to rule.
Manjhi had made such a controversial statement last year as well and said that he does not consider Ram as a god.
Describing Lord Ram as a fictional character, Manjhi had said that he never worships him and even asked his supporters not to worship him.
During this time, he had also given a controversial statement about Brahmins, on which there was a lot of politics and later Manjhi tried damage control by giving a banquet to Brahmins.
