Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh - The Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra has made an appeal to the devotees of Lord Ram, particularly those living in areas nearby Ayodhya, to consider postponing their visits by 15-20 days. This request comes in the wake of an unprecedented rush during this auspicious period, aiming to give devotees from faraway places priority in Lord Ram's darshan.
The appeal is especially significant with the onset of Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj from January 26. The holy cities of Ayodhya and Varanasi are also witnessing a significant surge in devotees, making it increasingly challenging for state administration to effectively manage the large crowds. The upcoming Mauni Amavasya snan, scheduled for January 29, is expected to bring another mammoth stream of pilgrims to these sacred sites.
With the influx of pilgrims, the state administration is grappling with ensuring the safety and comfort of all visitors. The authorities have been working diligently to maintain order and facilitate smooth operations, but the sheer volume of devotees presents a formidable challenge.
The Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra's appeal highlights the need for cooperation and understanding among devotees to ensure a harmonious and fulfilling pilgrimage experience for everyone. By postponing their visits, local devotees can help alleviate the pressure on the administration and provide an opportunity for those traveling from afar to have a memorable and peaceful darshan of Lord Ram.
As the Maha Kumbh and Mauni Amavasya snan draw near, the collective efforts of devotees and authorities will be crucial in managing the situation effectively. The spirit of unity and devotion will undoubtedly prevail, ensuring that the holy cities continue to be sanctuaries of spiritual solace and divine blessings.
