Lucknow: Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut, on Friday, created a flutter when he said that when the Babri mosque could be ‘demolished in 17 minutes, why is it taking so long to build the Ram temple?’
“Why is it taking so much time for drafting a law or ordinance? We took only 17 minutes to demolish the Babri mosque,” he told reporters in Ayodhya.
Mr Raut further said that “From Rashtrapati Bhavan to Uttar Pradesh, there is BJP government. In Rajya Sabha there are a lot of members who support Ram temple.”
He demanded that the government should enact a law for “quick construction of a grand Ram temple” in Ayodhya.
The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) backed by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) are holding a ‘Dharma Sabha’ on Sunday to press for an early construction of a Ram temple.
Meanwhile, special trains carrying Shiv Sainiks have started reaching Ayodhya.
