Noting that the country's security and prosperity should be 'rashtra dharma' (national duty), Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath Friday said some people want to run the country through 'fatwa', but asserted that it will run according to the Constitution drafted by B R Ambedkar.
Speaking at a programme held at the Gorakhnath temple to mark the death anniversary of Mahant Digvijaynath and Mahant Avaidyanath, Adityanath said, "Our religion can be protected only when our country is protected. Our 'rashtra dharma' should be India, its security and prosperity. The Acharya (spiritual teacher) of Gorakhpeeth always taught us that 'rashtra dharma' is more significant than any individual religion."
