Join the Ram Darbar Pran Pratishtha at Ayodhya's Ram Mandir from June 3-5. Know how to participate, updated entry rules, and which passes won't be valid on June 5
The Ram Temple in Ayodhya is once again in focus. After the consecration of Ram Lalla on January 22, 2024, the temple is now preparing for the installation of Rajaram on its first floor. A three-day Pran Pratishtha (consecration) ceremony will be held from June 3 to June 5.
Entry Restrictions
In view of the upcoming Pran Pratishtha, the Ram Mandir Trust has issued updated entry guidelines. On June 5, no special passes—including Vishisht and Sugam Darshan passes—will be valid. Devotees will not be allowed entry into the temple premises that day.
The installation of Ram Darbar will be led by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. The presence of VIPs and VVIPs has prompted these restrictions for crowd control and security purposes.
Rituals and Celebrations
The three-day ceremony will include consecration rituals not only for the Ram Darbar but also for smaller temples built along the temple's ramparts. Devotees unable to attend in person will be able to view the ceremonies online.
Preparations in Full Swing
Preparations for the Pran Pratishtha Mahotsav are nearing completion. A group of 101 Vedic scholars from across India will lead the rituals. In the lead-up to the main event, a traditional Kalash Yatra will be carried out by women, starting from Saryu Ghat and ending at the temple.
