Ayodhya: Preparations are in full swing in Ayodhya as Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, along with Speaker Satish Mahana, cabinet ministers, and members of the UP Legislative Assembly and Legislative Council, is set to visit the Ram Temple for darshan of Ram Lalla.
The MLAs will arrive in Ayodhya on buses, with the UP CM expected to reach the Ram Temple by noon. Visuals from outside the Uttar Pradesh Assembly in Lucknow showed BJP leaders chanting 'Jai Shree Ram' before departing for Ayodhya's Ram Temple.
Expressing his gratitude, BJP MLA from Moradabad, Ritesh Gupta, considered himself fortunate for the opportunity to have darshan of Lord Ram Lalla. "I am fortunate to have the darshan of Lord Ram Lalla. After the Pran Pratishtha ceremony, everyone desired to visit Ayodhya and have darshan. Today, thanks to CM Yogi Adityanath, all the MLAs will be traveling to Ayodhya together," Gupta said.
Meanwhile, BSP MLA Umashankar Singh emphasized against politicizing the issue. "The leaders of the Samajwadi Party are politicizing the issue, but we are not. Our party is secular, and we respect all religions...One should refrain from politicizing this," he said.
Echoing the sentiments, BJP MLA Mayankeshwar Sharan Singh remarked, "The entire country is elated. We are blessed with this opportunity after centuries. This generation is incredibly fortunate."
Simultaneously, thousands of devotees thronged the Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya on Saturday, seeking solace in prayer and the divine darshan of Lord Ram. Long lines of people were witnessed, eagerly waiting to catch a glimpse of the deity.
The 'Pran Pratishtha' of Shri Ram Lalla at Ayodhya's historic temple took place on January 22, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi leading the rituals, conducted by a group of priests. Acharya Satyendra Das serves as the Chief Priest of Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Temple in Ayodhya.
