The main Opposition BJP on Friday said the Government wound up the Ayodhya Cell in the Prime Minister's Office set up during NDA regime.
BJP has accused the UPA of not being serious in resolving the Ayodhya issue.
"When Atal Bihari Vajpayee was the Prime Minister, he had constituted Ayodhya Cell in the PMO to resolve the Ayodhya issue. But when the UPA came to power, the cell was wound up reflecting that a Congress-led government is not serious in resolving the matter," BJP President Rajnath Singh said.
He said the Ramjanmabhoomi issue is aimed at fostering social harmony and "Muslims should understand this and themselves come forward."
On the second day of his 35-day Bharat Suraksha Yatra, which started from Bhubaneshwar on Thursday, Singh branded Congress and Communists as "biggest communal forces" alleging that they were dividing the country on communal lines for the sake of votes.
"What has BJP done that it is communal and Congress and Communists are secular," he charged and asserted that the BJP-led NDA never gave reservation on the basis of caste or community.
