Speaking on the occasion, Maurya said: “There are two ways to resolve the Ram Mandir issue. One is through court and another is by dialogue between the parties (Hindu and Muslim litigants).”
Both the processes were underway at present, he added.
“If required, then law will be enacted for construction of Ram temple,” he said.
Maurya also assured the saints that the Ram temple issue would be resolved soon.
“Former PM (the late) Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s prophecy has come true and the BJP has won more than 300 seats in the Lok Sabha. Soon, other issues will also be resolved,” said Maurya.
The deputy CM also met central leaders of the VHP at Karsevapuram.
Maurya also offered prayers at the Hanuman Garhi temple.
