Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath held deliberations with the top brass of the RSS, including its chief Mohan Bhagwat, over a range of issues here today.
The meeting came a day after Adityanath had asserted that a Ram temple would be built in Ayodhya.
The Vishva Hindu Parishad, an RSS affiliate, had recently also deliberated upon the Ram temple issue.
The chief minister held talks with RSS executive head Bhaiyyaji Joshi for over two hours here and they were later joined by Bhagwat.
The meeting also assumes significance as the BJP is gearing up for the Lok Sabha elections.
Support of Hindutva organisations will play a key role for the party in Uttar Pradesh, where it is faced with a tough challenge from a likely alliance of SP and BSP.
Some VHP leaders also met Adityanath. They are in the national capital for its governing council meeting where the Ram temple issue was discussed at length.
