Thackeray, who recently raked up a controversy after giving a call for the removal of loudspeakers on mosques, had announced last month that he would visit Ayodhya on June 5 to seek the blessings of Lord Ram.
Notably, Maharashtra Tourism Minister and Shiv Sena leader Aaditya Thackeray had also earlier said that he would visit Ayodhya.
Raut told reporters here on Sunday that Aaditya Thackeray’s visit to Ayodhya is being planned around June 10. The minister will be accompanied by Shiv Sainiks from Maharashtra and all over the country, he said. ”This is not political, but a matter of faith for us. Aaditya Thackeray has been invited by different sections of society to highlight the true essence of Hindutva,” the Shiv Sena’s chief spokesperson said.

Singh recently also requested Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath not to meet Raj Thackeray till he apologizes to the North Indians.
