BJP MP Lallu Singh said Tuesday that he would welcome and be ready to receive MNS chairman Raj Thackeray during his projected Ayodhya visit next month, despite opposition from governing party legislator Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh.
The MNS head has stated that he and his followers would go to Ayodhya on June 5 to offer prayers at Ram Janmabhoomi.

Lallu Singh, the MP from Faizabad, which includes Ayodhya city, said on Tuesday that anybody who wishes to visit Lord Rama’s sanctuary is always welcome.
“We shall welcome him since we are the servants of Lord Rama’s followers. We shall also pray to Lord Rama to provide wisdom on Raj Thackeray so that he can cooperate with Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the development of himself and Maharashtra “he said
This follows BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh’s statement that Thackeray would not be permitted to cross Ayodhya’s boundaries until he apologizes to all north Indians with folded hands for “humiliating” them.
On Tuesday, he held a roadshow with a massive number of his followers and said that Thackeray would not be allowed to enter Ayodhya.
He has, however, said that his choice was “personal” and had nothing to do with the BJP.
