Mahant to go on fast-unto-death for Ram mandir construction

Ayodhya - Annoyed with the ruling bharatiya janata party's ''dilly-dallying attitude'' on the issue of the Ram temple construction here, chairman of Sri Ram Janma Bhoomi trust Paramhans Ramchandra Das today announced plans to sit on a fast-unto-death here within a couple of days, reports UNI.

Criticising the BJP leaders for dumping the issue on the court, he said, ''how could any one accept such versions from the BJP government which itself came into power climbing the 'mandir' ladder''.

Talking about his fast, he said the district administration had been informed about the decision.  The date of the proposed dharna would be announced after discussions with his followers.

The statement of BJP president Bangaru Laxman threatening judicial action against Vishwa Hindu Parishad if it tried to revive the temple issue before any court direction, had been accepted as a challenge by the supporters of Ram mandir, he added.
