At least three trucks of red stones were brought for building the controversial Ram temple in Ayodhya, under the supervision of the Vishswa Hindu Parishad (VHP).

"These red stones are for Ram Janam Bhoomi mandir's construction. These stones were brought here previously also and now again it's coming. Akhilesh Yadav's government imposed restrictions on the bringing of stones for the construction of Mandir," said Ram Janam Bhoomi VHP representative Prakash Kumar Gupta.

"For construction of Ram mandir, the big blocks of stones were brought. The former government (Akhilesh Yadav's Government) in Uttar Pradesh imposed restrictions verbally but the present government (Yogi Adityanath Government) has not done something like that," VHP's media advisor Sharad Sharma Prantiya said.
