Ram Mandir inauguration: Trust cancels Jan 17 Ayodhya tour, know why
Ram Mandir inauguration: Amid the festive air in Ayodhya and the euphoria around the consecration of the grand Ram Temple, the Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust has decided to cancel the procession set for January 17, which was initially intended to provide devotees with a view of the new idol of Ram Lalla due to crowd management concerns raised by security agencies.
Now, the Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust will organize the tour of the new idol inside the premises of Ram Janmabhoomi on January 17.
The authorities and officials of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust made the decision after a meeting with the Acharyas of Kashi and senior administrative officials.
The Ayodhya district administration, during the meeting, deliberated on the challenges of crowd control, expressing concerns about the potential rush of devotees and pilgrims eager to witness the 'darshan' of the new idol of Ram Lalla when it is paraded through the city.
