Ram Mandir back to Ayodhya after 500 years:- Today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi led the sacred 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremonies during the grand inauguration of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. The initial images of the divine Ram Lalla, adorned with exquisite gold and emerald jewelry, were unveiled shortly after. Last week, the idol was reverentially placed in the temple, with only its closed eyes visible. However, today, the world witnessed the unveiling of the idol's full face as the scarf concealing its eyes was gently removed. Prior to this, PM Modi participated in the 84-second 'muhurta' and engaged in rituals alongside RSS chief Mohan Bhagwant.
जय श्रीराम ?

Amidst the joyous celebrations, the Prime Minister entered the Ram temple a few moments before the commencement of the rituals. The venue was graced with the presence of numerous distinguished guests, including the legendary Bollywood figure Amitabh Bachchan and his son Abhishek Bachchan, as well as other beloved stars like Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Katrina Kaif, and Vicky Kaushal. Additionally, cricket icons Sachin Tendulkar and Anil Kumble also arrived at the Ram Mandir. Captured earlier on camera were business moguls Mukesh Ambani, his wife Nita Ambani, and their daughter Isha Ambani, as they made their way to the event.
This is Bharat's time! This is a historic time!

Prior to PM Modi's arrival at the venue, helicopters from the Indian Airforce showered the premises of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya with flower petals. The city in Uttar Pradesh has been filled with joyous celebrations in recent days, with devoted individuals chanting 'Jai Shri Ram' and displaying posters of Lord Ram throughout the city. Uma Bharti and Sadhvi Rithambara, both esteemed BJP veterans, were captured in an emotional embrace before the commencement of the 'Pran Pratishtha' rituals. In the meantime, it was announced earlier in the day that LK Advani, another respected BJP leader, would not be attending the event due to the intense cold weather. All three of these BJP leaders played vital roles in the Ram Mandir movement.
PM Modi, who declared earlier this month his intention to partake in 11 days of rituals leading up to today's inauguration of the Ram temple, entered the sacred space of the temple before engaging in the rituals. Although opposition parties were extended invitations to today's Ram Mandir inauguration, they declined, alleging that it was an attempt to politicize the event and utilize it as a tool in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
