Addressing a BJP rally in Uttar Pradesh's Pilibhit in support of party candidate Jitin Prasada, the Prime Minister said, "Our Kalyan Singh ji dedicated his life and government for the Ram Temple. Every family of the country contributed (to the temple). But those in the INDI alliance have always hated construction of the Ram temple," he said.
