According to the special DG, the entire district now has around 10,000 CCTV cameras, and cooperation with central and state authorities has been created.
According to officials, the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) has established a camp near the Ayodhya temple to respond to any exigencies that arise.
As devotees and dignitaries began to arrive at Ayodhya’s Maharishi Valmiki International Airport, anti-bomb and dog squad teams were deployed.
People from all around the world are preparing for enormous festivities, expressing their unrestrained delight and devotion for this historic moment.
The idol of Shri Ram Lalla, which was carved by well-known Mysuru sculptor Arun Yogiraj, was earlier on Thursday, January 18, and was put within the temple’s sanctum sanctorum.
The idol’s first picture, which was concealed by a veil, was made public on Thursday at the sanctum sanctorum placing ceremony.
Beginning on January 16, one week before to the major celebration, Vedic rites were performed for Ram Lalla’s Pran-Pratishtha ceremony in Ayodhya.
