A spiritually vibrant atmosphere enveloped Ayodhya on Thursday as the Pran Pratishtha of Shri Ram Darbar and other deities concluded with deep reverence.
The ceremony, held within the Ram Janmabhoomi complex, coincided with Ganga Dussehra and was graced by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. It marked the culmination of a three-day religious celebration.
Vedic chants, conch shells, and Acharyas’ hymns echoed across the holy city, adding divine solemnity to the occasion.
The final day began at 6:30 AM with the worship of invoked deities at the Yagya Mandap, followed by a havan at 9 AM.
Significantly, the consecration used modern audio-visual technology to synchronise rituals across shrines at the same muhurta.
This blend of Vedic tradition and digital advancement ensured that deities in different shrines were consecrated simultaneously.
Idols installed included Shri Ram Darbar, Sheshavatar, Shiva (northeast), Ganesh Ji (southeast), Hanuman Ji (south), Surya Dev (southwest), Maa Bhagwati (northwest), and Annapurna Mata (north).
Eventually, the rituals concluded with a special Aarti and Bhandara (community feast), drawing saints, Vedic scholars, officials of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, and thousands of devotees from India and abroad.
Coincidentally, the event also fell on CM Yogi Adityanath’s birthday, for which he sought Lord Shri Ram’s blessings.
Moreover, the day marked the Trayodashi Janmotsav of the Saryu River, enhancing the spiritual value.
Members of the saint community lauded the Chief Minister for restoring Ayodhya’s ancient heritage through the construction of the temple and citywide development.
In the last eight years, Ayodhya has witnessed a transformation with projects worth over ₹32,000 crore. These include road and rail upgrades, an international airport, beautification of the riverfront, and improved tourism infrastructure.
To ensure safety during the grand event, the administration imposed strict security. Multi-layered arrangements included ATS, CRPF, PAC, and local police.
According to SP Security, the site was under impenetrable surveillance using modern systems.
