Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday said that the Babri structure would never be rebuilt, asserting that those who believe otherwise are nurturing false hopes.
Addressing a public gathering in Barabanki, the Chief Minister reiterated the BJP government’s commitment to fulfilling its promises, saying it speaks only through its work. Referring to the party’s stand on Ayodhya, he said, “We had said that we would come for Ram Lalla and build the temple at the same place. Is there any doubt about that?”
Yogi further remarked that expectations of the Babri structure’s reconstruction would never be realised, adding that such hopes would fade with time. Emphasising India’s cultural heritage and Sanatan Dharma, he said the saffron flag would continue to symbolise the nation’s pride. He also referred to Prime Minister Narendra Modi hoisting the saffron flag at the Ram temple in Ayodhya, describing it as a representation of Sanatan values.
Targeting what he described as opportunistic attitudes, the Chief Minister said some people remember Lord Ram only during crises and ignore Him otherwise. He added that there was no space in society for those who had opposed or obstructed the Ram temple movement.
Issuing a warning on law and order, Yogi said people must learn to live within the framework of the law. He asserted that those who follow the law would prosper, while those who violate it would face consequences. He added that believing one could benefit by breaking the law was a misconception.
The Chief Minister said India and Sanatan Dharma are inseparable, alleging that both are facing challenges from internal and external forces. He called for public vigilance, claiming that while some people are conspiring, others are unknowingly becoming part of such agendas.
Referring to the situation before 2017, Yogi said Uttar Pradesh was then plagued by riots, frequent curfews and an atmosphere of fear. He claimed that women, traders, farmers and youth felt unsafe, and even temples, schools and homes lacked security. According to him, curfews were imposed frequently, creating widespread insecurity.
He asserted that law and order in the state has since improved significantly and that an environment of safety and stability has now been established.
