Accusing the Uttar Pradesh government of conniving to capture the disputed temple land in Ayodhya, Vishva Hindutva Parishad Patron Ashok Singhal alleged on Monday that Samajwadi party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav wanted to acquire a land next to the 70-acre acquired land around Sri Rama Janma Bhumi.
Saying that the SP chief had alleged "ganged up" with UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi towards this end, Singhal said all the Sants of the country were of the opinion nothing but a huge temple to Sri Ram Lala would be built on the 70 acres of land. He also said the construction of a mosque would not be allowed within the scriptural and cultural rim and perimeter of Ayodhya.
Singhal said: "It seems that Mulayam Singh Yadav wants to build a mosque and an Islamic Cultural Centre on the said plot of land (where an Ara/saw machine stands) adjoining the 70-acre acquired land of the Central Government. The Islamic forces are compelling him to do so.Singhal also accused the UP government of fostering an atmosphere of communal disharmony in the state, which is making it "unbearable for the Hindu society."
He said: "Incidents of pulling up and removal of Murtis from temples or their amputation are mounting in the state. The ripping up of the image of Maa Devkaali recently in Ayodhya is a burning example. Especially the timing of the eve of the Navaratras chosen to break or sever the images to practice iconoclasm is designed to compellingly provoke the society. The Akhilesh Yadav led SP Government has proved to be totally incapable of preventing such incidents.
