Kolkata: Asserting that the Ram temple will come up at Ayodhya, BJP leader and Union Minister Giriraj Singh asked Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav and Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi whether they wanted it to come up in Bangladesh or Pakistan.

"The Ram Mandir (temple) will be built in Uttar Pradesh's Ayodhya. Can anybody -- Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav -- tell me whether they wanted the temple to be built in Bangladesh or Pakistan," asked the Minister of State for Micro, Small, Medium Enterprises on the sidelines of a programme here on Friday.

"The Ram temple will be built and has to be built in India," said the leader, known for making controversial comments on various issues.

Attacking Congress President Sonia Gandhi's daughter Priyanka Vadra, he said: "She cannot see 'achhe din' now. But about 1.5 crore women, who had never seen LPG cylinders in the past, have received them now. They are seeing 'acche din'."
