1992 could be repeated in Ayodhya during 'Dharam Sabha': Surendra Singh

Taking part in a rally to mobilise people for the event, the BJP lawmaker told reporters Thursday that 5,000 people from his constituency, Bariya, would travel to participate in the "Dharam Sabha" where the issue of Ram temple's construction would be taken up by saffron outfits.

He said "law and order is not an issue as far as Lord Ram is concerned...he will take care of it".

Singh said if the need arose, they would take the law into their hands for the temple's construction, like it was done in 1992 for the demolition of Babri mosque.

The legislator asserted that Ram temple would be constructed under the Narendra Modi and Yogi Adityanath governments.

He had come under fire in April for calling West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee 'Surapnakha' and comparing opposition Congress to 'Ravana'.

In July, Singh had said that even Lord Rama cannot curb rapes, prompting Congress to dub him "insane" and fit for a mental asylum.

He was referring to the recent Unnao molestation case in which a woman was dragged into a forest and molested by a some men.
