Ballari: Prime Minister Narendra Modi led union government has no plans of beginning construction of Ram Mandir at Ayodhya, according to Lok Sabha member and Karnataka BJP president Pralhad Joshi.

He clarified that the Union government had no any such proposal.
Joshi was in the town to take part in the campaigning for elections to Legislative Council from local bodies constituencies.
He said that the Union government had already “clarified” its stand on the Kalasa-Banduri project.
