Claim

Kejriwal (invoking his grandmother) had said that his Ram would never go to a temple built where a mosque was demolished.

“केजरीवाल जी की तो नानी जी कहती थी कि उनका मेरा राम उस मंदिर में कभी नहीं जाएगा जहां मस्जिद तोड़ के बनाई गई हो।”

Rationale

Kejriwal did make this statement, framed through his grandmother, at an AAP rally in Kanpur in March 2014: that his/her Ram could not reside in a temple built by demolishing a mosque. The anchor's paraphrase ('would never go to' vs 'cannot dwell in') is a minor wording difference but faithful in substance, and the nani attribution matches Kejriwal's own telling. The statement is well documented in contemporaneous reports and was widely recalled when Kejriwal later visited Ayodhya.
