Udupi Pejawar mutt seer and trustee of Sri Ram Janmabhoomi Tirth Kshetra Trust Sri Vishwaprasanna Tirtha said devotees may visit the Sri Ram temple at Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh a day after the consecration of Lord Sri Rama’s idol, that is from January 23.
Speaking to reporters in Mangaluru on November 16, he said that the idol will be installed in the temple at the Abhijith muhurta in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi on January 22. Everyone will not be allowed to the temple on the inaugural day for security and other reasons.
Devotees may watch the ceremony live on large screens at Ram temples in their respective villages, towns or cities, the seer said. Ram mandirs across India will perform a special pooja and distribute prasadam to devotees on that day, he said.
