Temples will also come up in Kashi and Mathura, says suspended BJP MLA Raja Singh
Hyderabad, Mar 31: Shrines would also come up in Mathura and Kashi, following the construction of a Ram temple in Ayodhya, due to a "push," suspended Telangana BJP MLA T Raja Singh has said.
Singh made the remarks during the 'Shobha Yatra' held on the occasion of Ram Navami on Thursday.
"A grand Ram temple is being built in Ayodhya following a push. Similarily, a grand temple will be built in Mathura and Kashi," he purportedly said in a video, which has gone viral.
In another video, the Goshamahal MLA in Hyderabad, administered a 'sankalp' (resolve) to a gathering to make India an 'Akhand Hindu Rashtra'.
The 'sankalp' also calls for "giving a befitting reply to love jihadis" and for protecting 'sadhu', sant' (holy men) and the women of India.
A senior police official told PTI that they were looking into the contents of the Singh's speech and would seek legal opinion.
On reports of Nathuram Godse's picture being displayed during the procession, the official said they were looking into that also.
Following an uproar over his alleged remarks against Islam and Prophet Mohammed, the BJP had suspended Singh from the party in August 2022. Singh, who was booked over the remarks, was arrested and he later secured bail.
Singh, known for his strong Hindutva views, faces several police cases in Hyderabad, including those related to alleged communal offences.

Tirupati laddu row: Samples of Ayodhya Ram temple 'prasad' sent for testing
Ayodhya, Sep 27: The Food Safety and Drug Administration Department on Friday collected samples of 'elaichi daana' or cardamom seeds being distributed as 'prasad' at the Ram Janmabhoomi temple here and sent them for testing, officials said.
The action was taken following a complaint lodged through the Integrated Grievance Redressal System (IGRS), Assistant Food Commissioner Manik Chand Singh said.
Singh said the samples were procured from Haiderganj, where the cardamom seed offerings are prepared and sent to the Jhansi State Laboratory for comprehensive testing and evaluation.
Prakash Gupta, the officer in charge of the Ram Temple trust, revealed that on average, around 80,000 packets of cardamom seeds are distributed daily as a sacred offering.
Amid a row over the alleged presence of animal fat in laddus at the Tirupati Temple in Andhra Pradesh, the chief priest of the Ram temple here on Thursday questioned the purity of ghee being sold nationwide and said 'prasad' should be prepared under the supervision of temple priests only.
