Nashik: Dwarkapeeth Shankaracharya Swarupananda Saraswati who arrived here for the first time for the Kumbh Mela today said a Ram temple at Ayodhya will be constructed, but not with the help of the BJP government at the Centre, political parties or the RSS.

The Ram temple would be constructed with the support of the people and saints, he told reporters today at Khemaji Arogya Dharmashala at Gangaghat here.

"So far, there has been no solution to the Ram temple issue. Ram temple will be constructed at Ayodhya with the support of mahants, sadhus and people, but not with the support of any political parties," said Saraswati, who arrived here yesterday.
