The Impact of the Ram Mandir Consecration in Ayodhya

Despite the BJP's efforts in projects like constructing an international airport and widening roads in Ayodhya, the party faced an electoral setback in the Fazabad Lok Sabha seat post the consecration of the Ram Mandir. The party expected a significant impact from the consecration across Uttar Pradesh but only secured 33 seats compared to the Samajwadi party's 37 seats. Local dissatisfaction stemmed from inadequate compensation for demolished homes and the perception of neglecting the residents of Ayodhya.
