Earlier in January, Adityanath had taken a dip at the Sangam along with his cabinet ministers, India Today has reported.
According to the report, a BJP statement has said that Amit Shah would visit various holy places and meet saints during his one-day visit.
His visit assumes significance in wake of demands by various Hindu groups to bring in a law for early construction of the Lord Ram temple at Ayodhya.
