Ayodhya Ram Mandir: Crowd of devotees gathered to see Ramlala, Raga Seva will be organized in the temple from today.

Since the next day of Pran Pratistha in Ram temple, a huge crowd of devotees is gathering for the darshan of Ramlala. Devotees are also donating openly. Since Pran Pratistha, various types of programs are being organized in different parts of the country. Trips are being organised. The enthusiasm of the devotees for darshan is so much that even the transport services are not functioning properly. People who could not attend the consecration ceremony due to administrative reasons are now slowly reaching Ayodhya. A large number of devotees had reached Ayodhya on the occasion of Paush Purnima. After coming here, the devotees took bath in the Saryu river and then started reaching the Ram temple for darshan from the morning itself. Despite the huge crowd, darshan was conducted smoothly in the temple. RPF and police personnel deployed for security from the entrance of Janmabhoomi Path are allowing people to enter inside the queue. Proceeding from the Janmabhoomi Path, the caravan of Ram devotees is going towards the main complex after depositing all their belongings and mobile phones at the Pilgrim Facilitation Centre. According to administrative estimates, by 1.00 pm on Thursday, more than 50,000 devotees had had darshan of Ramlala. The darshan started at 6.00 am and continues continuously. This process is being completed by drawing a curtain for 15 to 20 minutes during Aarti and Bhog. Even during this time, devotees are not being stopped from entering the pavilion. Darshan is resuming immediately after the Aarti. Let us tell you that after the consecration of Ramlala, Raga Seva will be organized in the temple from today. This event will be organized in front of God in Gudi Mandap. In this, more than 100 well-known artists from different provinces and art traditions across the country will offer their raga seva at the feet of Lord Shri Ramlala for the next 45 days. The architect and coordinator of this program on behalf of the Trust is Mr. Yatindra Mishra.

Top VHP officials are deployed in Ayodhya

Even after the consecration ceremony of Ram Lalla, many top officials of Vishwa Hindu Parishad are posted in Ayodhya. Instead of Karsevakpuram, the Trust General Secretary has camped in the Ramjanmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Bhavan in Ramkot, adjacent to the Ram Temple complex. Trust Treasurer Govind Dev Giri, who was staying here several days before the ceremony for preparations, will leave for Pune on Friday i.e. today.
