Shree Ramayan Yatra
India celebrated the 22nd of January, the consecration day of Shree Ram Janmabhoomi Temple with great pomp and show. The day was nowhere less than ‘Diwali’, one of the most auspicious festivals for the Hindu community. After the successful consecration of Ram Lalla in Ayodhya’s Mandir, the government has now taken the initiative to take devotees to 9 different spots which are related to the auspicious narrative of ‘Ramayan’. Hence, the name of the program under which this initiative will be fulfilled is named ‘Shree Ramayan Yatra’.
This journey will be through trains. Union Minister of State for External Affairs and Culture, Meenakshi Lekhi flagged off the Bharat Gaurav Deluxe AC Tour Train under ‘Shree Ramayan Yatra’ from Safdarjung Railway Station in Delhi on the evening of Sunday, February 4.
