‘Apologise to Ram Bhakts first’: Yogi Adityanath ahead of Akhilesh Yadav's visit to Ayodhya
UP chief minister Yogi Adityanath said the same forces that had opposed the Ram temple movement were now trying to take political mileage from it.
As Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav prepares to visit the Ram temple in Ayodhya, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has demanded an apology first. Adityanath cited the firing on karsevaks in 1990, during Mulayam Singh Yadav's tenure, as the reason for his request. He emphasized that those responsible for the violence should apologize to Ram Bhakts before entering Ayodhya.
Adityanath also criticized Yadav for visiting the temple, stating that the forces opposing the Ram temple movement are now capitalizing on its success. He praised Ayodhya's transformation into a global spiritual destination under his government, crediting the Deepotsav, temple construction, and infrastructure development. Adityanath warned that anyone who plays with the sentiments of Sanatan Dharma will face consequences, and Ayodhya belongs to all of India, not just any one party or family.
