Ayodhya Ram Mandir: BJP Plans Nationwide Live Telecast of Ram Lalla Idol Consecration

The Bharatiya Janata Party plans to broadcast the Abhishek or 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony of Ram Lalla's idol from the Ayodhya Ram Temple across the country. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend the grand event to be held on January 22.

Numerous VVIP guests from India and abroad have received invitations to attend the auspicious event in Ayodhya. According to a report by news agency ANI, BJP workers have been instructed to set up a big screen at the booth level for the live broadcast of Ram Lalla Murthy's Abhishek. According to party sources, the aim of the initiative will be to provide a means for common people to witness Ram Lalla's Abhishek. "This way, common people can have a darshan of Ram Lalla and witness the abhishek ceremony. This will allow individuals to virtually witness the ceremony without visiting the temple. No one will miss this special day," 

BJP workers are also encouraged to personally participate in social functions. "Workers can choose to distribute blankets, organize community festivals (bhandara), or contribute through donations in terms of food or fruits to help the needy," the BJP leader said.

A week before the main celebration, Vedic rituals for the Abhishek ceremony will be held in Ayodhya on January 16. On January 22, Varanasi priest Lakshmi Kant Dixit will conduct the main ceremony for the Abhishekam of Ram Lalla. Amrit Mohotsav will be celebrated in Ayodhya from January 14 to January 22. Apart from this, 1008 Hundi Mahayagnas will be held, in which thousands of devotees will partake of food. To accommodate thousands of devotees who are expected to flock to the temple town in Uttar Pradesh for the ceremonial abhishek, several tent cities are being built in Ayodhya. In preparation for the expected influx of guests during the main event, local authorities are putting in place extra security measures and organizing logistics to ensure that everyone who attends has a flawless and spiritually enlightening experience. According to Sri Ram Janmabhoomi Trust, arrangements will be made for 10,000-15,000 people.
