Tyagi raised the issue of stones being transported and carved for constructing the proposed Ram temple at Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh.

He said that tension is being created in Ayodhya, where the Babri mosque once stood.

“A similar situation (to what prevailed earlier) is being created in Ayodhya once again. Tension is being incited,” Tyagi said.

Members of the Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party and the Congress too supported him.

BSP leader Mayawati accused the BJP and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh of trying to derive political mileage by again raking up the Ram temple issue. “There should not be anything that is in contempt of the Supreme Court.

It’s the responsibility of the Uttar Pradesh government to maintain law and order,” she said.

However, members of the Congress and Samajwadi Party trooped near the chairman’s podium and shouted slogans against the government.

Deputy Chairman P.J. Kurien adjourned the house for 10 minutes.
