Das had shared the stage with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the ground breaking ceremony in Ayodhya on Aug 5.

Blending the occasion of the "Bhoomi Pujan" with the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the PM had said in the ceremony on Aug 5, "Keep a distance of two yards [six feet] and wear mask.. it is all the more important today amid Coronavirus to follow the maryada [values of modesty, honour, rightousness and discipline] practised by Ram."
