Congress delegation to visit Ayodhya today in UP

Amid an ongoing controversy over alleged embezzlement of funds at the Ram temple, a high-level Congress delegation will visit Ayodhya on Tuesday, June 30, and pay obeisance at the shrine.

The delegation will be led by the party’s Uttar Pradesh unit chief Ajay Rai and include MPs Kishori Lal Sharma



(Amethi), Rakesh Rathor (Sitapur), Ujjwal Raman Singh (Prayagraj) and Tanuj Punia (Barabanki), according to a statement issued by the Congress.

However, Rai has been placed under house arrest at a hotel in Ayodhya, the opposition party said in another statement issued late on Monday, June 29 evening.
