Ayodhya Set To Break Two Guinness World Records

The Uttar Pradesh Tourism and Culture Department has pulled out all the stops to make this year’s Deepotsav more divine and majestic than ever. After multiple review meetings, officials confirmed that Ayodhya will aim for two Guinness World Records this year. Traditionally, records were created by lighting more diyas each year, but in 2025, the city plans to achieve an additional milestone by offering 2,100 diyas during the grand aarti ceremony. This aim symbolises light, devotion, and unity among all the devotees.

Schedule Of Ayodhya Deepotsav 2025

The city is all set for a breathtaking sequence of events today. From 2 PM, Ayodhya will witness magnificent tableau processions showcasing the glory of Ramayana. Between 3:10 PM and 3:30 PM, devotees will celebrate the royal coronation of Lord Ram, followed by the main Deepotsav lighting ceremony at 5:50 PM.

The evening will feature laser and drone shows depicting the Ramayana, followed by cultural performances, Ramleela enactments, and soulful bhajans at the Ramkatha Park. The Ayodhya Deepotsav 2025 will turn the entire city into a divine spectacle of light, faith, and heritage.
