From West Bengal and Bihar, I then entered Ayodhya,” he added.Asked about the challenges he faced during his journey, besides the weather extremities in these months, he said, “In Tamil Nadu, I faced some language issues. India is a very beautiful country, which I have experienced myself over the last about 250 days”.The best thing was enthusiasm of people that was seen, he added.Sanjay Singh, a traffic sub-inspector, who has come to Ayodhya on duty, posed for pictures with Bhagat.”A person should have the zeal and zest, then one can do anything.
