LUCKNOW , (PTI): Former Indian premier Janata Dal (B )leader Vishwanath Pratap Singh June 26 alleged that the Ruling Congress (I) and the Right Wing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) were hand in gloves on the Ayodhya temple issue,

He told reporters here the construction of a wall around the disputed shrine, leveling of land and digging of trenches at Ayodhya were part of the process of temple construction at the disputed site in Ayodhya. He said this could be possible only with the tacit understanding between the Uttar Pradesh government and the Center. Singh said the Janata Dal was supporting the candidature of G.G.Swell for the post of president to further the cause of social justice and encourage scheduled caste and scheduled tribe people.
