Participants in the Sant Sammelan had unanimously arrived at the decision to demand that Ram Janmabhoomi Nyas be entrusted with the responsibility of construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya on the model proposed by the VHP three decades ago. On November 9 last year, the Supreme Court had paved the way for construction of the temple in Ayodhya. Ambrish Singh, VHP’s regional organisation secretary for UP, said the Parishad was trying its best to ensure the Central government gave the responsibility for temple construction to Ram Janmabhoomi Nyas. In its November 9 verdict last year, the Supreme Court had directed the Centre to form a trust for construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya within three months. VHP working president Alok Kumar said the Parishad had forwarded a proposal to Central government on the Ram Temple model and other issues.
