New Delhi, Oct 15: Deputy Prime Miniser L K Advani today spoke to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mulayam Singh Yadav and advised him not to adopt a confrontationist attitude and prevent VHP workers from entering Ayodhya for their rally on Friday. Advani told Tadav, who is currently in Bhopal, over telephone that since assurances had been given by top RSS leaders including its Chief K S Sudarshan and the VHP that their programme would remain peaceful, confrontation should be avoided. The VHP workers should not be prevented from entering the holy town, a Home Ministry spokesman quoted Advani as telling Yadav.

Advani also told Yadav that keeping these assurances in mind, the Centre had also decided not to stop the trains from going to Faizabad and Ayodhya or nearby places.
Yadav, the spokesman said, told Advani that he would hold discussions with state government officials and revert back to the Deputy Prime Minister. Bureau Report
