Mumbai’s temples lightened up with diyas, people illuminated their homes with diyas and diwali lights and skies got adorned with gleaming lights of firecrackers making this mega event no less than the Diwali celebration in Mumbai. Prime Minister Narendra Modi on January 22 took part in the much-awaited consecration ceremony of Ram Lalla’s idol at Ayodhya Ram Mandir amid the chants of Vedic mantras.
