Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath responded to the reopening of a 46-year-closed temple in Sambhal, questioning why previous governments hadn’t punished those responsible for the 1978 riots that forced Hindus to flee. The Bhasma Shankar temple, discovered during an anti-encroachment drive, houses Lord Hanuman’s idol and a Shivling. Locals welcomed the temple’s reopening.
