'Not a single penny came from their pockets': UP CM Yogi Adityanath slams opposition on Ram temple donation case
UP CM Yogi Adityanath alleged that those criticising the handling of donations for the Ram temple had earlier tried to stall the temple's construction.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath criticized opposition parties on Monday for questioning the handling of donations for the Ram temple in Ayodhya, alleging they had historically obstructed temple construction efforts. Speaking to reporters ahead of the state legislature's Monsoon Session, Adityanath accused those opposing the temple of attempting to stall its construction by employing a large number of lawyers in courts.
He dismissed their claims of donation theft, emphasizing that no funds for the temple's construction ever came from their pockets. Adityanath urged legislators across party lines to engage in constructive discussions during the session, calling for a positive approach to address the welfare of the state's 25 crore residents. He also introduced a supplementary budget aimed at boosting financial support for frontline workers, including Anganwadi workers, ASHA workers, cooks in government programs, and village chowkidars.
