Uttar Pradesh BJP president and Union minister Pankaj Chaudhary urged Akhilesh Yadav to visit Ayodhya's Ram temple on December 6 rather than December 12, accusing him of insincere devotion and urging repentance for alleged killings of Ram devotees under the SP government. The BJP marks December 6 as Shaurya Diwas; PM Modi consecrated Ram Lalla on January 22, 2024.
