Spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, who has been trying for a solution to the Ayodhya dispute through mediation, met Ittehad-e-Millat Council chief Maulana Tauqir Raza Khan here today.

Ravi Shankar, who reached the Trishul airbase here in a private jet, offered a 'chaadar' at the Dargah Ala Hazrat and also visited the Alakhnath temple and offered prayers to Lord Shiva.

Later speaking to reporters, Tauqir Raza Khan said, "Ravi Shankar during the meeting said that he was trying to create such an atmosphere, so that different parties of the Ramjanmabhoomi-Babri Masjid dispute may sit and hold talks and find a solution to the dispute."
 

According to Khan, Ravi Shankar told him that the common Hindus and Muslims wanted a peaceful solution to the dispute and if the parties involved become ready for talks, it will be beneficial for the country.

"Ravishankar is being seen with suspicion, and some are even calling him a puppet of BJP. However, the truth is that the BJP does not want to resolve the issue...The intention of Ravishankar is good," Khan said.

Khan also said that he endorses Ravishankar's views and he will help the spiritual leader in his campaign.
