"I demand and I am warning it, consider it as a threat or whatever; if Uddhav Thackeray being the chief minister goes to Ayodhya on 7 March then I will also go along. I will also ask my father to accompany me, I call upon members of MVA and SP members to come along," Farhan said on Monday.
"If Uddhav Thackeray confirms his ticket for Ayodhya then we all will hold foot-march to Ayodhya, we will also go along, but the condition is that he will construct Ram Temple and we will construct Babri Masjid," he added.
