On the eve of Diwali, Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Ayodhya in the Uttar Pradesh state and worshipped Lord Rama. PM Modi said on Twitter, “I had the privilege of worshipping Lord Shri Ramlila in this holy land of Ayodhya. I wished for the progress of the nation and the well-being of all the countrymen.”
The Shree Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra site was viewed by the prime minister. He also spoke with those involved in the initiative.
“Inspected the ongoing construction works in Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra. It is going to be a wonderfully grand complex, which will attract devotees from all over the world,” he said in another tweet.
On Sunday, Modi inaugurated “Deepotsav” celebrations at Ayodhya.
He also performed “aarti” at Ayodhya’s New Ghat on the Saryu River. As part of the Deepotsav celebrations, earthen lights were lit along the banks of the Saryu river in Ayodhya.
When more than 15.76 lakh earthen lamps were lit at the “Ram ki Paidi” during the Yogi government’s Deepotsav festivities in Ayodhya, a new Guinness World Record for the “biggest display of oil lights” was established.
The idea of “Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas” is inspired by the ideals and rule of Lord Ram, according to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is in Ayodhya for the Deepotsav celebrations.

While addressing the gathering, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, “Shri Ramlala’s ‘Darshan’ and then ‘Rajyabhishek’ of King Ram, this good fortune is obtained only by the grace of Lord Ram. When Shri Ram is consecrated, the ideals and values of Lord Rama become firm in us. Lord Ram is the inspiration behind Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas – he took everyone along, and did not leave anyone behind.”
The Prime Minister claimed that the nation developed the “Kartavya Path” to honor Lord Shri Ram’s leadership and forge India’s identity on the international stage based on his “Kartavya Bal” teachings.
“Lord Rama is called Maryada Purushottam. Maryada teaches us to have respect and to give respect. And Maryada is the realization is the duty itself. Ram does not leave anyone behind. Ram does not turn his face out of duty. Ram, therefore, embodies the spirit of India, which believes that our rights are self-evident by our duties. This Deepawali has come at a time when we have completed 75 years of independence. ‘Sankalp Shakti’ of Lord Ram will take India to new heights,” he added.
The Prime Minister came to Ayodhya today to participate in the Deepotsav festivities. Yogi Adityanath, the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, and Anandiben Patel, the governor, welcomed him.
