The Chief Minister asserted that another reason why he came to Ayodhya was to check the security and other preparedness for thousands of devotees who thronged the temple town on Diwali.

“As the Chief Minister of the state, it is my duty and I am committed to development of every place of the state,” he added.

After offering prayers at a temple in Ayodhya, Adityanath said he had also come to Ayodhya to pray for peace, security and welfare of the state.

Adityanath offered prayer at Hanumangarhi Temple, Sugreev Temple and Ram Janam Bhumi in Ayodhya.

Uttar Pradesh Governor Ram Naik was also present at the event. ANI
