Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit and roadshow in Ayodhya on Sunday, former litigant in the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid case, Iqbal Ansari said that the last 10 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s tenure have been very good and that he wants him to become the Prime Minister again.

While talking to the media about PM Modi’s arrival to Ayodhya for the first time since the Pran Pratistha ceremony, Ansari said, “PM Modi is fortunate that his elections are starting from Ram’s city.”

In January this year, the former litigant in Ayodhya land dispute case was also invited  to the Ram temple consecration ceremony on January 22 in Ayodhya. The invitation was delivered to him at his house located in Kotia Panjitola near the Ram Path.

He was also present, among the hundreds who gathered and welcomed Prime Minister Modi in Ayodhya on December 30, when the latter inaugurated a redeveloped railway station and a newly built airport in Uttar Pradesh.

Ansari has been a significant proponent of the Babri Masjid and was also invited to the Ram Mandir’s ‘bhoomipujan‘ ceremony on August 5, 2020.

During the bhoomi pujan ceremony, he said, “There is a Ganga-Jamuni-Tehzeeb in Ayodhya, and all religions are equally respected here. Maybe, it was the wish of Lord Ram that is why I have been invited to the event. There is no difference between the Hindus and Muslims residing in Ayodhya. The matter has now been resolved by the Supreme Court.

His father Hashim Ansari, the oldest litigant in the land dispute case, died at the age of 95 in 2016, after which Iqbal started pursuing the case in court.
