PM Heads To Ayodhya; City Decked Up For Ram Temple Ceremony | Read

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will return to Ayodhya after 29 years today for the groundbreaking ceremony for a Ram temple at the site that was disputed for decades until the Supreme Court handed over ownership to Hindus last year. PM Modi will lay a 40 kg silver brick to mark the symbolic start of a grand temple at what many believe is the birthplace of Lord Ram. The historic event meets a decades-long political promise core to the ruling BJP's ideology. The temple town was lit up in resplendent purple and green last evening.
