Ram Mandir Inauguration: For devotees planning to attend the Aarti of Lord Ram at the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, the Ram Mandir Trust has introduced an online application process for passes, allowing individuals to secure their spots without the need to stand in queues at the temple's physical counter. As the inauguration of the Ram Mandir draws near — set for January 22, 2024 — the surge in crowds, particularly at the pass counter, has prompted the Trust to provide an online alternative for devotees. This latest initiative enables individuals to apply for passes from the comfort of their homes.

Ram Mandir Opening: How To Book Passes Online, Aarti Timings
For those interested in booking passes online, the official website of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra, accessible at https://srjbtkshetra.org/, provides the platform for securing passes.
The temple offers darshan timings from 7am to 11:30am and from 2pm to 7pm.
The temple conducts Aarti thrice a day, with Morning Jagran or Shringar Aarti at 6:30am, afternoon Bhog Aarti at 12:30pm, and evening Aarti at 07:30pm.
For Aarti passes, you will need to have four documents handy — Aadhaar Card, Voter ID, Driving Licence, and Passport. It is expected that having one of these should be enough for any verification/security procedures.
