BJP MLC says the 18th century queen had restored the temple
Though he welcomed inauguration of the Kashi Vishwanath Corridor, former Minister and BJP MLC A.H. Vishwanath found fault with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for ignoring the 18th century queen Ahilyabai Holkar who had restored the temple.
Addressing a media conference in Mysuru, Mr. Vishwanath said the government’s failure to acknowledge the efforts of Ahilyabai Holkar in conservation of not only Kashi Vishwanath, but several other temples during her tenure, was a ‘lapse’.
