Al Jazeera English Prime Minister Narendra Modi has inaugurated a controversial Hindu temple in the city of Ayodhya.
The shrine was built on grounds where a mosque stood for centuries.
That was destroyed by Hindu activists in 1992.
In elections in 2014, Modi campaigned with a promise to build a temple dedicated to the Hindu god Lord Ram, on the very site of the demolished mosque.
With the temple's consecration coming only months ahead of a national election - opposition leaders accuse him of exploiting religion to win political favour.
What does this mean for the future of secularism in the country?
