  • On the other hand, in Patna, BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi has launched the Samarpan Nidhi Sangraha Abhiyan for collecting the temple construction fund.

    He said, "I hope every Hindu family in Bihar contributes toward the building of the beautiful temple. I'm sure that whatever fund is required for the temple, we will get it out of people's cooperation."

  • Other religions

    'Will certainly take cooperation from the followers of other religions'

  • Modi further said followers of other religions can also contribute to the temple fund.

    "But the thing is if it is a mosque, it is expected that Muslims will be at the forefront. So, it is the Hindu community's responsibility that they come forward for Lord Ram's temple," he said.

    "We will certainly take cooperation from the followers of other religions too," added Modi.
