Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav Wednesday demanded an investigation into the land deals in Ayodhya in the past seven years.
Reacting to an investigative report published in The Indian Express, Akhilesh said that it is now emerging that people from elsewhere bought and sold land in Ayodhya on a large scale to make profits.
Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra also posted on X: “Common people would know the price of flour and pulses. Ministers and officials were busy finding out the price of land in Ayodhya.”
Akhilesh posted an image of the report — Arunachal Deputy CM to chief of UP Special Task Force, Brij Bhushan’s MP-son to politicians across party lines: Rush to ride Ayodhya boom — published in The Indian Express Wednesday. He wrote in Hindi, “As the land deals in Ayodhya are being exposed, the truth is coming out that under BJP rule, people from outside Ayodhya have bought and sold land on a large scale to make profits.
“…The BJP government’s decision of not increasing the circle rate for the past 7 years is an economic conspiracy against the local people. Due to this, land scams worth billions of ruppes have taken place,” Yadav posted.

He said: “Here, the land has not been bought but instead (grabbed) by land mafia,” adding, “The people living in Ayodhya-Faizabad and surrounding areas did not get any benefit from all this. Buying land from the poor and farmers at the throw away price is a kind of land grabbing.”
Akhilesh wrote, “We demand a detailed investigation and review into the “rigging” and land deals in the name of so-called development in Ayodhya.”
Shiv Sena (UBT)’s Priyanka Chaturvedi posted on X: “For the BJP, Lord Ram is not about pyaar (love) but vyapaar (business). That is why Maryada Purushottam Lord Shri Ram has taught them a befitting lesson in this election!”
