Krishna asked for five villages Hindus only seeking three: UP CM

In a significant address to the Assembly, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath hinted at developments related to Kashi and Mathura, where the Gyanvapi and Shahi Idgah mosque disputes are located. Adityanath drew parallels with the Mahabharata, stating that while Krishna sought five villages, the Hindu society today is only asking for the three centers of faith—Ayodhya, Kashi, and Mathura.

He emphasized the historical significance of Ayodhya's Ram Temple, noting that Lord Ram Lalla had to produce evidence of his existence in court, a unique instance worldwide. Adityanath expressed satisfaction that the temple was built as promised, highlighting the perseverance and commitment of the community.

The Chief Minister also addressed the delay in the pran-pratisha of the Ram Temple, mentioning that development in Ayodhya, Kashi, and Mathura was obstructed. Referring to past injustices and curfews in Ayodhya, he compared the situation to the Mahabharata, where the Pandavas faced injustice.

Adityanath drew a parallel with Krishna's request for five villages and the current plea for the three centers of faith. The speech underscored the determination and significance of these religious centers for the faith, urging a united approach beyond divisive politics.
