In a video statement, he said: “I appeal to the people to contribute money willingly to the volunteers. We will maintain a register on payments received and will hand over the total collection to the area SDM to be send to the temple trust.”

Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra trust started its donation drive on Friday along with Vishwa Hindu Parishad to raise funds for the construction of the Ram temple.

Navprabhat said that he had set up booth committees to counter the BJP in his Assembly constituency Vikasnagar. “Lord Ram is a symbol of national unity and he is not of the BJP alone. He belongs to every devotee.”
