In reply, Tandon said, "Don't worry, soon that day is coming. I know that Ayodhya has been waiting for a long time for that auspicious day for which you all are raising your voices. That day will come very soon."

Before Tandon, Minister of State for External Affairs, General (Retd.) VK Singh also had to deal with similar slogans from the audience.

In his speech, Singh said, "This is the second time when Deepotsav has been organised. It reminds us of the past... I feel that people will get to see a lot in the coming years."
