Uttar Pradesh Shia Central Waqf Board chairman Wasim Rizvi on Thursday announced he is donating Rs 51,000 for the construction of a Ram temple in Ayodhya.
Rizvi said the Board favoured the construction of a Ram temple in Ayodhya and the Supreme Court judgment on the decades-old issue is the “best verdict” that could have been possible.
In a unanimous verdict, the Supreme Court last week cleared the way for the construction of a Ram temple at the disputed site in Ayodhya and directed the Centre to allot a separate five-acre plot to the Sunni Waqf Board to build a mosque. “Now preparations are on for the construction of a grand temple at the Ram Janmasthan,” Rizvi said.
