Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Friday that Sanatan Dharma is the foundation of India’s identity and existence and any affront to its dignity and honour will not be tolerated.

Addressing a gathering after inaugurating the newly constructed Sri Hanuman Katha Mandapam at the Hanumangarhi Temple in Ayodhya, the CM stressed the importance of “distinguishing between true friends and adversaries” and called upon the sadhus and saints to enhance the scope and impact of the activities related to Sanatan Dharma.

“Sanatan Dharma forms the core of India’s identity and must be protected at all costs. Those obstructing the path of Sanatan Dharma should be identified and reported to the government and administration. I urge the saints and Nagas of Hanumangarhi to preserve their warrior spirit and remain vigilant in defending Sanatan Dharma,” he said.

The Chief Minister warned against opposing “Sanatan values”, stating, “The country must recognise its true allies and adversaries. Our armed forces neutralised at least 124 terrorists. Pakistan shelters those who threaten peace. Terrorism will be its downfall, and its days are numbered.”

Criticising the previous governments for allegedly neglecting Ayodhya, Adityanath said, “Before 2014 and 2017, the city had broken roads, neglected ghats and faced power shortage.”

The Chief Minister emphasised “Ayodhya’s spiritual, cultural, and infrastructural transformation” and reaffirmed his commitment to protection and global propagation of Sanatan Dharma.

Describing Hanumangarhi as a confluence of devotion, power, intelligence and strategy, he said, “Hanumangarhi is not just a temple. It is a symbol of warrior spirit dedicated to the protection of Sanatan Dharma.”

Hailing the Hanuman Katha Mandapam as a future spiritual hub for propagating Sanatan values through discourses and storytelling, Adityanath lauded the Nagas of Hanumangarhi as warriors of a time when the akharas stood strong against foreign invasions and religious persecution.

The construction of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi temple is a landmark achievement in the history of Sanatan Dharma, he said.

Calling Ayodhya a global epicentre of Sanatan Dharma, the CM said a mere mention of the city evokes reverence among devotees worldwide. “There isn’t a single follower of Sanatan Dharma — be it in America, Canada, Europe, Australia, or New Zealand — who doesn’t feel drawn to Ayodhya when they visit India,” he said.
