Nobel Peace Laureate and activist Kailash Satyarthi arrived at Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Pran Pratishtha Day on Monday and said that definitely it's a historic day.
"The world becomes free of violence and war - that is our responsibility...This is the message of Ayodhya...This is definitely a historic day..." said Kailash Satyarthi in Ayodhya.
"Lord Ram was Dasharatha's son, Kausalya's son, Sita's husband, and king of Ayodhya. He was a great man who reached the pinnacle of human ideal. When we worship him, the most important challenge is the challenge within us that we should live the ideals of compassion, justice and general brotherhood established by Lord Ram in our lives," said Kailash Satyarthi.

Lord Ram's blessing will fall on everyone," said Acharya Satyendra Das.
