Volunteers are working tirelessly to arrange the diyas along the Saryu riverfront and across designated locations. The ghats are being adorned with carefully placed earthen lamps, as volunteers and artists join forces with the administration to make this edition of Deepotsav memorable.
The approach road to Ram Katha Park, the main venue, has been transformed into a colourful display with rangolis featuring lotus flowers, auspicious kalash, Swastik symbols, and traditional diyas. The Chief Minister, Yogi Adityanath, is personally overseeing the preparations. Additionally, new tourism facilities have been developed at Ram Ki Paidi, including an open-air theatre, viewing gallery, visitor gallery, selfie point, stage, mural wall, stone chhatris, and Jyoti Deep installations.
The facilities aim to provide a unique experience for both devotees and tourists, showcasing Ayodhya's cultural heritage and tourism potential. Women associated with the Prajapita Brahma Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya will also participate in the Saryu Aarti, conveying messages of peace, purity, love, and social harmony. This significant event marks a significant milestone for Ayodhya, reinforcing its role in India's religious tourism landscape.
