Lucknow, Sept 27 (IANS) Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader L.K. Advani Saturday appealed to Muslims in the country to support the construction of a Ram Temple in Ayodhya and claimed this was also the wish of majority of the citizens.
Addressing a public meeting in Moradabad town in western Uttar Pradesh Saturday evening, Advani said: 'In the same way, Sardar Patel had got the Somnath Temple erected when Jawaharlal Nehru was the prime minister, the country's Muslims should cooperate in the building of a Ram Temple with mutual cooperation.'
