Government spokesman and Health minister Sidhharth Nath Singh predicted that the Supreme Court would decide in favour of the temple at Ayodhya in the Ram Jnma Bhoomi-Babri masjid dispute pending before it. He also predicted that the construction work of Ram temple at Ayodhya will commence before the Ardhkumbh at Allahabad in 2019.
Singh quoted prediction by Swami Brahma Yoganand to buttress his claim. The minister said this after releasing Swami Yogannad’s book ‘Sampurna Bharat-Param Vaibhav Bharat’ at a function organised by Vishwa Hindu Parishad in Allahabad on Friday.
"Swami Brahm Yoganand predicted that Narendra Modi will take over as Prime Minister of India in 2014. Now he has predicated about the Ram temple at Ayodhya. The temple exists at Ayodhya, only a grand new structure needs to be built there,’’ he said.
The minister claimed that the construction of the temple at Ayodhya was always there in BJP's agenda and the party never deviated from its commitment for temple construction at Ayodhya.
"Prime Minister Narendra Modi changed the popular perception about secularism. The environment in the country is fast changing and people who earlier opposed the construction of temple at Ayodhya were now in favour of it. Over 90 per cent of Muslims are in favour of Ram temple at Ayodhya," said the minister.
Singh said that the state government was committed to providing better health facilities to every person. He said that government is working on remove hurdles for better facilities to patients in state-run hospitals.
