Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday stated that Sambhal, mentioned in scriptures over 5,000 years old, predates Islam, and the Hari Vishnu temple was destroyed in 1526.
“Sambhal represents a historical truth, and I have always spoken about it openly,” said Yogi Adityanath at a media event in Lucknow.
He also mentioned that ‘Bhagwa’ represents his identity, as well as that of Sanatan Dharm, and expressed pride in it, adding that one day, the whole world would embrace it.
“Bhagwa is my identity, Sanatan Dharm’s identity and I am proud of it. One day whole world would wear it,” said Yogi.
