Ayodhya, 12 Jan: Yogi Government is preparing to celebrate the life consecration event of Lord Shri Ram in Ayodhya like a festival in the entire state. The people of the state are also being encouraged for this.
In this sequence, after the Pran Pratistha on January 22, there is a plan to celebrate Deepotsav on a large scale at night.
This festival of lights will be many times bigger than the festival of lights organized in Ayodhya on the festival of Diwali. In this, lamps will be lit on the banks of all rivers including Saryu, temples, historical and mythological places as well as in every house, shop, institute and establishment. The flame of these lamps has been named Ram Jyoti.
In such a situation, the Yogi government has appealed to all the people of the state to celebrate the festival of Deepotsav by lighting the Ram Jyoti not only in their homes but also in their offices and shops.
The environment should be filled with Ram. Ram devotees not only in the state but in the country and the entire world are very excited about the program of Praan Pratishtha. After 500 years of struggle, Lord Ram is going to sit in his temple with full glory. The double engine government has appealed to celebrate this historic occasion like a festival in the entire country. After Pran Pratistha, every citizen has been asked to light a lamp in their house at night. The flame lit from these lamps is being called Ram Jyoti.

Such aura should be spread through Ram Jyoti that the entire atmosphere becomes filled with Ram. An atmosphere of devotion should be created like it is on Diwali or any other festival. Yogi government is continuously encouraging all the people of the state regarding this.
People will be able to perform green fireworks. In the instructions issued by Chief Secretary Durga Shankar Mishra to all the department heads, it has been said that on the evening of January 22, a program of Deepotsav should be organized in every house, ghat and temple.
