India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi is overseeing the laying of the foundation stone for a Hindu temple at a controversial religious site.
He is in the northern town of Ayodhya, where a mob destroyed a 16th-century mosque in 1992, in which thousands of people were killed.
The building of the temple has been a decades-old promise by Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party.
After years of legal wrangles, last year the Supreme Court ruled that the site belongs to Hindu groups.
