“Be patient and plan your visits.” CM in Ayodhya: “Don’t come on foot”
Upon arriving in Ayodhya on Friday, CHIEF MINISTER Yogi Adityanath examined the preparations for the January 22 dedication ceremony of the Ram Temple. In addition, Adityanath visited the Hanuman Garhi shrine in Ayodhya and offered prayers to Ram Lalla.
He emphasized that the consecration ceremony will “reiterate India’s faith and pride” and described it as a “historic” occasion.
“Lok astha ki punah pratistha ka karikaram hai, Bharat ke vishwas aur lok astha ki,” the chief minister remarked, pleading with people to be patient while organizing their trips to Ayodhya. Adityanath suggested that people plan their visit according to schedule and avoid walking in the cold as the local government and police will provide all the provisions.
“Whether it is Kashi or Ayodhya, Prayagraj or Chitrakoot, Badrinath Dham or Kedarnath Dham, Mahakal or Somnath, pious sights are visible to followers of Sanatan Dharma everywhere today,” Adityanath said earlier in the day while attending an event in Ayodhya.
The Chief Minister also said that all of his Cabinet’s ministers will worship at the Ram Temple on February 1 at a review meeting later in the day.
Joyous deal
“Enthusiasm for the upcoming consecration ceremony is present throughout Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, and the entire nation.” Adityanath said that with the help of the general people, the blessings of sadhus, and the favor of Lord Ram, the January 22 event will take place in a “grand, divine, secure, and well-organized manner.” Devotees would experience delight upon seeing this moment, which is arriving after five centuries.
He further stated that better green corridors have been established for the convenience of tourists from cities throughout the state, including Lucknow, Gorakhpur, Varanasi, and Prayagraj, and he guaranteed that any plan for the darshan of Lord Ram prepared by the Teerth Kshetra Trust would receive full support from the state government at the local level.
“After five centuries, this opportunity has come,” the Chief Minister said, appealing to the people while reiterating that he understands their joy and passion. As a result, everyone is filled with zeal and excitement. Every devotee longs to get Lord Ram’s darshan. We share the same feelings that you have in your hearts. I am appealing that darshan would become feasible with improved harmony and collaboration. Therefore, visitors should arrive in Ayodhya in accordance with their itinerary. Please don’t arrive on foot.
In addition, he asked everyone to be patient, waiting for their turn and according to the set timetable.
The Chief Minister further said that a “beat system” is being developed to interact with the public at the local level and to enable organized Ayodhya darshan from various locations. “Jismein yahan par sthaniya star par ane wale shradhaluon ko darshan karne ka awashar prapta hoga, 22 ke baad bhi Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Khsetra Nyas ke Duara Prabhu sri ram ke darshan karne ke liye karya yojna tyar hogi,” Adityanath added.
According to officials, at the review meeting earlier in the day, it was decided that each “VVIP” should have a liaison officer assigned to them. These officers are supposed to be knowledgeable about the “mythological, historical, and geographical importance of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Mukti Yagya, Ayodhya,” and they should also receive counseling regarding this matter.
In addition, the Chief Minister instructed authorities to coordinate inter-district and inter-state police for the ease of pilgrims visiting Ayodhya, as well as to create an action plan for darshan visits to the city over the next six months.
Adityanath instructed authorities to make sure there was “effective communication and coordination” with the Indian Air Force and the Trust officials since it was also disclosed at the meeting that there would be a “flower shower” during the consecration event.
