Uttar Pradesh deputy chief minister Keshav Prasad Maurya said here Sunday that "no power can stop" construction of grand Ram temple at Ayodhya.

He said, the Bharatiya Janata Party "was is and will always" favour construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya.

"The issue is pending with the Supreme Court, hence, I cannot comment," he said.

Maurya, however, hastened to added that, "We can tell for certain in one line that a grand Ram temple would be constructed whenever time comes."
The deputy chief minister reiterated his party's stand on the issue and said, "No power can stop construction of grand Ram temple at the birthplace of Ramlala."
Taking a jibe at Congress president Rahul Gandhi without naming him, Maurya said "The people are realising the 'asaliyat'and 'nakaliyat' (what is genuine and what is fake) of those who are attempting to cheat the Hindu community by putting on 'janev'(religious thread)."
