The prime minister said that the story of Ramayana is connected with everyone irrespective of his/her religion.

“…Ramayana teaches us about the victory of love despite all the challenges. It connects the entire humanity with itself, and that’s why it has gathered attraction across the entire world,” he said.

The consecration ceremony of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya is scheduled to be held on January 22.

During the ceremony, Prime Minister Modi will install the idol of Ram Lalla, the children version of Lord Ram.

Earlier this month, PM Modi announced a special 11-day ‘anushthan’ (ritual) ahead of the Pran Pratishtha ceremony at Ayodhya’s Ram Temple.

Ahead of the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ ceremony, preparations are almost done amid tight security arrangements.

Ayodhya will be fortified for the Ram Temple’s inauguration ceremony with a foolproof security cover.
