Prime Minister Narendra Modi spent the day ahead of Diwali in Uttar Pradesh's Ayodhya, where a grand Ram Temple is being built. This was PM Modi's first visit to Ayodhya after he laid the foundation stone for the temple in 2020. A portion of the temple is likely to be opened for pilgrims by December next year. PM Modi offered prayers at the temple and later reviewed work at the site. The sixth edition of Deepotsav is being held this year.
