Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath delivered a strong message on the Ayodhya issue, declaring that the Babri Masjid will never be rebuilt, even “till eternity” or the Day of Judgment (Qayamat). Speaking at a public gathering in Barabanki on February 10, 2026, during religious rituals at the Ram Janaki Temple in memory of late Mahant Baba Harishankar Das Maharaj, he addressed those harboring dreams of its reconstruction.
“Those who are dreaming of the Babri structure, to them I would like to say that the day will never come,” Adityanath stated firmly. He equated any possibility of rebuilding to the arrival of Qayamat, asserting, “The day of ‘Qayamat’ will never come and hence the Babri structure will never be rebuilt. Those who are dreaming of the day of ‘Qayamat’ will rot away, that day will never come.”
The CM urged people to “learn to live by the rules in India” and abide by the law of the land, warning that breaking rules leads to severe consequences. He contrasted this with the fulfillment of long-standing promises on the Ram Temple, recalling the BJP slogan: “Ram Lalla, hum aayenge, mandir wahi banaayenge” (We will come for Child Ram and build the temple right there). “Has the temple been built? Is there any doubt?” he asked, prompting chants of “Jai Shri Ram” from the crowd.
Adityanath highlighted the completed Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya as proof of the government’s commitment and delivery on its word. His remarks reinforce the post-Supreme Court verdict (2019) reality, where the site was allocated for the temple following decades of legal battles and the 1992 demolition of the Babri Masjid.
The statement comes amid ongoing discussions on Ayodhya’s transformation into a major pilgrimage and economic center. Critics view it as provocative, while supporters see it as a clear affirmation of closure on the dispute and focus on development. Adityanath’s words underscore the BJP-led government’s unwavering stance: the chapter on the disputed structure is closed permanently, with emphasis now on harmony, law, and progress in Uttar Pradesh.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday asserted that the Babri structure would never be rebuilt, warning that those who continue to harbour such dreams would never succeed.
Addressing a public gathering in Barabanki, the Chief Minister said that even the “Day of Judgment” would not bring back the disputed structure.
“Those who are dreaming of the Babri structure should understand that day will never come,” he said, urging people to live within the framework of the law and respect the country’s traditions.
Reiterating the BJP’s long-held position on Ayodhya, Adityanath said the party had fulfilled its promise to build the Ram temple at the birthplace of Lord Ram.
“We had said we would come for Ram Lalla and build the temple at the same place. Is there any doubt now?” he asked.
Targeting what he described as “opportunists”, the Chief Minister said some people remembered Lord Ram only in times of crisis and forgot Him later.
“Such people have been forgotten by Lord Ram as well,” he remarked, adding that there was no place in society for those who opposed Ram’s cause or fired bullets at Ram devotees.
Issuing a strong message on law and order, Adityanath said citizens must learn to live by the rules of the land.
“Those who follow the law will move forward. Those who break it will head towards hell,” he warned, adding that dreams of attaining heaven by violating the law would never be realised.
The Chief Minister also linked India’s identity closely with Sanatan Dharma, saying the two were inseparable.
Referring to Prime Minister Narendra Modi hoisting the saffron flag at the Shri Ram temple in Ayodhya, he described the moment as symbolic of Sanatan values and India’s cultural heritage.
Adityanath further alleged that both the nation and Sanatan Dharma were facing challenges from within and outside.
He called for vigilance, claiming that while some were conspiring against these values, others were being misled or working in support of such agendas.
Highlighting changes since 2017, he said Uttar Pradesh earlier witnessed frequent riots, curfews and a pervasive sense of insecurity.
“There was a time when curfews were imposed every three or four days in some district or the other,” he said, adding that women, traders, farmers and youth felt unsafe, and even temples, schools and homes lacked security.
The Chief Minister claimed that law and order in the state had since improved significantly, creating an environment of safety and stability.
