The installation ceremony on January 22 is expected to draw hundreds of officials, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The Sri Ram Janambhoomi Trust has extended invitations to 4,000 saints from various sects for the auspicious occasion. Ayodhya, revered as the birthplace of Lord Rama, holds immense spiritual, historical, and cultural significance for the people of India.

According to the Sri Ram Janambhoomi Trust, arrangements will be made for 10,000-15,000 people to witness the historic event. Three idols, crafted from stones brought in from Karnataka and Rajasthan, will be considered for placement in the sanctum of the grand temple. The selection of the best idol from the three stones is slated for the first week of January, paving the way for the consecration ceremony.

Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has planned a nationwide campaign for Ram Mandir celebrations commencing on January 1. BJP workers will embark on a door-to-door initiative across villages, encouraging ten crore families to participate in Diya Lighting programs for the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. The campaign aims to involve communities from every corner of the country in the joyous celebration of this significant cultural and religious milestone.
