Devotees are now strictly prohibited from carrying any plastic items, including baskets and water containers, into the temple premises. Temple Trust chief executive officer Vishwa Bhushan Mishra and other officials create awareness about the plastic ban in and around the Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Varanasi. (Sourced) A team from the KV Temple administration, along with Temple Trust CEO Vishwa Bhushan, deputy collector Shambhu Saran, and the special executive officer, informed flower and garland sellers near gate no 4, Dhundhiraj Ganesh, and Mata Vishalakshi temple areas about the new rule. The temple trust stated that from August 11, entry with any kind of plastic will be completely restricted. The campaign has been running for a month as part of the ongoing effort to maintain cleanliness and protect the temple environment. As part of the 'Plastic Free Dham' initiative on August 7, MLA Neelkanth Tiwari, corporator Kanaklata Tiwari, and other council members distributed bamboo baskets and steel pots to encourage shopkeepers to adopt eco-friendly alternatives. The campaign began on July 12 with a public awareness drive launched during the Shravan month by Varanasi Nagar Nigam, with support from mayor Ashok Tiwari, municipal commissioner Akshat Verma, and KV Temple officials. The temple trust has appealed to all devotees, vendors, and local residents to support the initiative and help keep the Dham clean, safe, and plastic-free. 'The entry of plastic in Shri Kashi Vishwanath Temple premises has been completely banned from today, August 11. From today, the entire Kashi Vishwanath Dham has been declared plastic free. This has been implemented in a phased manner,' said Kashi Vishwanath Temple Trust's chief executive officer, Vishwa Bhushan Mishra, in a video message.

Ram temple construction to be overby year-end, says Nripendra Misra
Lucknow: The construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya is progressing rapidly and will be completed by the year-end, said temple construction committee chairman Nripendra Misra on Saturday. He said devotees would be allowed to visit all parts of the temple complex within the next two months. Misra said all the idols to be installed in the temple have arrived and now the Temple Trust will begin the work of Pran Pratishtha. He said the idol of Lord Shiv will be installed on May 31 and mark the start of rituals leading up to the main consecration events. The consecration of the Ram Darbar, featuring idols of Lord Ram, Sita and Hanuman, is scheduled from June 3-5. The ceremony will be led by 101 Vedic scholars, primarily from Kashi and Ayodhya. According to reports, the temple trust has decided to invite mainly spiritual leaders instead of VIPs from the central or state govts for the June 5 ceremony. Misra said 'Sapt Mandir' (seven temples) work had been completed. It houses temples dedicated to sages and devotees associated with Lord Ram. These include temples of Maharishi Valmiki, Vashistha, Vishwamitra, Ahalya, Shabari, Nishadraj and Agastya Muni. Likewise, 90% of the 'Parkota' work is expected to be completed by June-July and it will be fully ready by Sept, Misra said. The construction of the exhibition and auditorium has started and would be completed by March next year, he added.
