Srinath Jena | HENB | Bhubaneswar | April 15, 2017::  At Bhubaneswar national executive meet, BJP reiterates it commitment for Ram temple in Ayodhya, but didn’t prioritize the issue until asked by the media.

The BJP today somehow underlined its commitment to building a grand Ram temple in Ayodhya and said whenever the Supreme Court takes a decision, it would be very “effective”.

Asked if the BJP’s national executive discussed the issue, a core demand of the party, Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said it was not necessary to take up the issue in every meeting.

However, he added that the party’s manifesto has made it clear that it is for a grand temple in the Uttar Pradesh town.

“Not as a Law Minister but as somebody who knows the law, let me tell you that there are voluminous documents with the Supreme Court and whenever a decision is made it will be very effective,” he said.

As such, BJP is clearly taking a stand to leave the matter of Ayodhya entirely on Supreme Court of India’s decision on it.
