Faizabad, Jan 13: Firebrand leader Uma Bharti today sought to maintain the suspense on her future course of action saying the decision in this regard would be announced tomorrow after paying obeisance at the Ram temple in Ayodhya but made it clear she would never discard the Hindutva ideology.
"Main apni jeevan ki disha kal badal doongi (I will change the course of my life tomorrow)," she said addressing a public gathering here, seven kilometers from Ayodhya on the last leg of her 'Ram-Roti Yatra'.
Bharti said she would not be swept away or influenced by the public support she received during her over 800 km yatra which criss-crossed several hamlets and cities in Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh after starting on November 28.
"I was not out here to see poverty. I am not Sonia Gandhi. I embarked on this yatra to gauge your feelings and understood your feelings and aspirations," she said amid cheers fom the gathering.
Bharti said when she started the yatra she was alone and she had no idea about her fellow travellers and the future path. "But after travelling so far, the way has become clear."
Quoting a verse of noted literatteur Mahasweta Devi, she said "When I started the yatra, the question of my future plan was raised. Then I replied 'panth rehene do aparicheet, pran rehene do akela (let the sect remain unknown and the soul lonely).
"Now I want to add one more line. When I reach Ayodhya and meet Lord Ram then I would meet co-travellers when the soul would be discovered."
She said her soulmates would be the crores of jobless, the downtrodden, the oppressed and women.
Bharti reiterated that she was the rightful claimant of the Hindutva ideology and she would never discard it and fight against those forces who try to cause harm to it. She will address a public gathering during which she would outline her future course.
Bharti continued her attack on BJP leaders and charged L.K. Advani with diluting the Hindutva ideology of the BJP.
She said she was not after power and wanted a leadership change in Madhya Pradesh only because it was not delivering what the party had promised during the election campaign.
"Ladte, ladte mar jaaye to swarg milega; aur is ladai mein jeet gaye to raaj milega," a belligerent Bharti said adding that she would fight till the end.
