Katiyar Sparks Controversy Over Ayodhya Mosque Remarks

Vinay Katiyar, a BJP leader, stated that Muslims should leave Ayodhya and relocate.

He also said that no mosque would be permitted in Ayodhya.

His comments came during a press conference in Ayodhya, where he was asked about a rejected mosque plan.

He mentioned that Muslims should move to other districts across the Saryu river.

Awadhesh Prasad, a Samajwadi Party MP, disagreed, stating that the country belongs to everyone regardless of their faith.

Others see Katiyar’s statements as a bid to regain relevance.
