First Images of Ram Lalla at Ayodhya Ram Mandir

The first pics of Ram Lalla at Ayodhya’s Ram Mandir are out. The idol was unveiled during the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ ceremony with rituals led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

In a historic moment for devotees across the nation, the doors of the newly consecrated Ram Mandir in Ayodhya have been opened to the public today, January 23. Nearly five lakh devotees visited the temple on Tuesday, a day after an elaborate ‘Pran Pratishtha’ ceremony which saw Prime Minister Narendra Modi among other key figures in attendance.

The Ram temple in Ayodhya will welcome visitors during two time slots daily: from 7 am to 11.30 am and then from 2 pm to 7 pm. The installation of the Ram Lalla idol, a 51-inch tall figure crafted by Mysuru-based sculptor Arun Yogiraj, was the focal point of Monday’s festivities.

A huge rush of devotees was witnessed outside the temple complex on this chilly winter’s day, many of whom had queued up since 3 AM to gain entry to the temple, catch a glimpse of Ram Lalla and offer prayers.

Jai Shree Ram
