The Taj Mahal in Agra came into the argument, after the Uttar Pradesh government dropped it from its tourism booklet, following which BJP hardliner Sangeet Som said it was a good decision.
This was followed by another controversial BJP MP Vinay Katiyar saying that the Taj Mahal is actually a Hindu temple dedicated to the Hindu God Shiva.
As the row went out of hand, CM Adityanath stated that Taj Mahal 'was built by the sweat and blood of the sons of Bharat Mata'.
