Uttar Pradesh political figure Akhilesh Yadav announced his intention to visit the newly constructed Ram Mandir in Ayodhya once the Kedarnath Dham project reaches completion. Speaking on the matter, Yadav indicated that he has sought guidance from temple authorities regarding an appropriate auspicious time for his pilgrimage. He instructed aide Pawan Pandey to consult with senior priests and scholars to identify a suitable muhurat for the visit. Yadav's statement comes as the Ram Mandir continues to draw significant religious and political attention following its consecration earlier this year. In separate remarks, Yadav also offered political counsel to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, suggesting that the state leader contest elections from the Ayodhya constituency.
