The management committee of a shrine in Assam has urged Congress MP Rahul Gandhi not to visit it until the consecration of the Ram temple in Ayodhya on Monday is complete.

The management committee of the Batadrava Than in Assam’s Nagaon district said that Gandhi would visit the shrine after 3 pm on Monday. The visit will be a part of the Congress’ ongoing Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra.

The shrine is believed to be the birthplace of Srimanta Sankardeva, a 15th-16th century Assamese social reformer and artist. Gandhi was earlier scheduled to offer prayers there while Prime Minister Narendra Modi would preside over the consecration of the Ram temple in Ayodhya.
