Expressing displeasure over the delay in construction of Ram Temple, Mahant Giri said, “It seems that BJP is not interested in the construction of Ram Temple, also the intent of RSS and VHP are questionable. Till now we have not got any invite for VHP’s Dharm Sansad. The Dharm Sansad happens every year and it is very unlikely that any solution will be worked out over the issue this year as well.”
“The Naga Sadhus and seers will camp in Ayodhya for almost a month, post which the construction of Ram Temple will commence,” the Akhara Parishad President said. Mahant Giri also criticised the RSS and the VHP for some recent remarks made by them in relation to Ram Temple.
However, according to some reports Akhara Parishad’s General Secretary Mahant Hari Giri disagreed with the remarks of Akhara Parishad President saying that he might have made the comments in his personal capacity as no such discussion took place in the Akhara.
