Chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday hit out at the Samajwadi Party and the Congress for their stance on the Ram Janmabhoomi movement and said now diyas (lamps) are being lit where bullets were once fired.

He made the comment at Ayodhya’s Ram Katha Park while addressing the gathering on the occasion of the ninth Deepotsav celebrations after the symbolic coronation (Rajyabhishek) of Lord Ram and Sita when they returned to Ayodhya after 14 years in exile.

“During the Ram Janmabhoomi movement in this very Ayodhya, Congress said Ram is a myth, while the Samajwadi Party fired bullets at Ram devotees,” he said.

This Deepotsav, 1.51 crore diyas are being lit across the state,
