Modi: Opposition using Muslims as 'pawns'

It was his first visit to Ayodhya after the 'pran pratishtha' of the idol at the temple on January 22.

Modi's Ayodhya visit coincided with the conclusion of the campaigning for the third phase of the Lok Sabha elections, in which polling for 93 seats will be held on Tuesday.

Earlier in the day, the Prime Minister (PM) addressed public meetings in Etawah and Dhaurahra in Uttar Pradesh. In Dhaurahra, he said Muslims now understand that the Congress and Opposition INDIA bloc are using them as "pawns".
