Shiv Sena leader and Maharashtra minister Aaditya Thackeray paid a visit to Ayodhya on Wednesday. He stated his arrival at the temple town is not associated with politics but he is here to seek the blessings of Lord Ram.

His visit comes at a time when the BJP, Shiv Sena's former ally, has been questioning the party's commitment to Hindutva. Earlier, the head of Maharashtra Navnirman Sena Raj Thackeray had announced his visit to Ayodhya on June 5, but was cancelled later.
