This is going to be a very significant and historic task. On August 8, the foundation stone laying ceremony of this temple will be done by Amit Shah and Nitish Kumar.”

Earlier on July 18, Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Bihar to inaugurate development projects worth over Rs 7,000 crore in Motihari.
