The Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (UPSRTC) was assigned the responsibility of organising ten luxury buses to facilitate the pilgrimage in Ayodhya.
The invitation was sent out to all the members of the legislative bodies, however, only the ruling Bhartiya Janata Party and its alliance partners accepted the invitation wholeheartedly. Samajwadi Party declined to participate in the pilgrimage, HT reported.
BJP MLA Sarita Bhadauria alleged, "Samajwadi Party declined because of politics. All believe in Lord Ram, but SP fears that going to Ram Temple would disturb their vote politics."
Meanwhile, BJP MLA Ritesh Gupta said, "I am fortunate to get the opportunity to have the darshan of Lord Ram Lalla. After the Pran Pratishtha ceremony, everyone wanted to visit Ayodhya and have a darshan. Today, because of CM Yogi Adityanath, all the MLAs will be travelling to Ayodhya together."
BJP MLA Mayankeshwar Sharan Singh said that the entire country is happy and that the current generation is very lucky to have gotten this opportunity after centuries.
