Ram Temple Inauguration: Ahead of the consecration ceremony at the Ram Temple in Ayodhya on January 22, the Bandra-Worli Sea Link in Mumbai was lit up with the words ‘Jai Shree Ram’, meaning in bright colours. Several videos have surfaced on social media showing the sea link decked up with stunning lights and decorations.

The "pran pratishtha" ceremony in Ayodhya will take place in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and will be attended by many VVIPs. Meanwhile in Maharashtra's Chandrapur, thousands of diyas lit up in the shape of 'Siyavar Ramchandra Ki Jai' at Chanda Club Ground ahead of the 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony.

With just two days to go for the consecration ceremony, the grand Ram temple has been decorated with "rich stocks" of flowers and special lights for the mega event, officials said on Saturday, as reported by news agency PTI. The entire temple town is in the grip of religious fervour or as the locals say, "Ayodhya Rammay ho rahi hai".

"Rich stocks" of flowers have been used for the decoration and special floral designs have been made to deck up the temple for the big day, PTI reported, citing sources in the temple trust

"These are all natural flowers and due to winter can last longer. So they will remain fresh on the day of the consecration ceremony. The fragrance and the aesthetic appeal of these vibrant flowers have lent another layer of divinity to the temple," a source told PTI.

He stated that separate teams were made for floral decoration and illumination work and they are all working in tandem under the guidance of the trust officials. He added that decorative lights used for outer illumination are themed on diya, so as to give a traditional look and highlight the ornate elements of the temple.
