Announce date for Ram temple construction: Uddhav Thackeray to Centre

Arriving in Ayodhya ahead of a planned VHP rally for the Ram temple, Shiv Sena Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray asked the Narendra Modi government Saturday to spell out the date when it will be constructed. "Day, months, years and generations have passed. Mandir wahin baneyenge, par date nahin batayenge (You say you will make the temple there, but won't tell the date)," he said. "First say when will you construct the temple, the rest we will talk later," Thackeray said in what sounded like a dare to the BJP government ahead of next year's Lok Sabha elections. Listen-in.
