Earlier, a PTI report read that more than 20,000 packets of 'mahaprasad' was prepared for the ceremony by Gujarat's Bhagwa Sena Bharti Garvi and Sant Seva Sansthan, under the guidance of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust. The prasad, reportedly, was made with more than 5000kg ingredients including pure ghee, five types of dry fruits, sugar, and gram flour, by a team of about 200 people.
"We have been entrusted with the responsibility of preparing 'mahaprasad' along with making arrangements for the stay and food of the saints," said Kamal Bhai Rawal, the organisation's national president.
