Will build Ram temple in Ayodhya at any cost, says BJP leader Vinay Katiyar

Senior BJP leader Vinay Katiyar on Wednesday said that they will build Ram Temple in Ayodhya come what may. "Hum har halat mein wahan mandir (Ram temple in Ayodhya) banayenge," Vinay Katiyar told ANI.

In January, Katiyar had said that the Ram temple matter will always be alive and because it is the basic issue of the party, hence no compromises will be made in this regard. Because his remarks came in the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh assembly elections then, he had clarified that they shouldn’t be connected with the polls.

However, at that time too, he had said that Ram temple must be built in Ayodhya at any cost.

"The Ram Mandir movement that was started by me 30 years ago became the base for the giant leap of BJP," Katiyar claimed. 

"There is no need to connect Ram temple issue with state elections but it is an old matter. It must be raised every time until the construction of the temple," he said.
