Devotees at the Wadala Ram Temple in Mumbai joyously celebrated the Pran Pratishtha of Ram Lalla, following the unveiling of the idol at the Shri Ram Janmaboomi Temple in Ayodhya. The revelry included dance performances and the jubilant bursting of fireworks as devotees marked this significant moment with exuberance.


Prime Minister Narendra Modi led rituals during the Pran Pratishtha ceremony at the grand temple in Ayodhya, where the idol of Lord Ram was unveiled. Indian Air Force (IAF) helicopters showered flower petals over the Shri Ram Janmaboomi Temple premises, creating a surreal atmosphere of devotion.



Chanting 'Jai Sri Ram,' devotees and guests shared in a deep sense of reverence during the ceremony. The presence of RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat, Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel, and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath added to the significance of the historic event.

Representatives from major spiritual and religious sects across the country attended the ceremony, along with people from various walks of life, including tribal communities. Prime Minister Modi is scheduled to address this distinguished gathering, interacting with shramjeevis associated with the construction of Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Mandir.

As part of the ceremony, PM Modi will also visit Kuber Tila, where the ancient temple of Lord Shiv has been restored. The Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Mandir, constructed in the traditional Nagara style, stands as an architectural marvel with dimensions of 380 feet in length (east-west), 250 feet in width, and a height of 161 feet. The temple boasts intricately sculpted depictions of Hindu deities on its pillars and walls.

The Mandir complex, designed with traditional and indigenous technology, includes five halls, a historic well (Sita koop), and the restored temple of Bhagwan Shiv at Kuber Tila. The foundation of the Mandir, constructed without the use of iron, features a 14-meter-thick layer of roller-compacted concrete (RCC). With facilities like a sewage treatment plant, water treatment plant, and independent power station, the Mandir stands as a testament to architectural and technological excellence.
