Ram Temple Trust invites PM Modi for Ram temple inauguration on Jan 22, 2024

Prime Minister Narendra Modi was invited by Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Trust for the inauguration of Ram Temple in Ayodhya on January 22, 2024.

General Secretary of Sri Ram Janmbhoomi Trust Champat Rai met the Prime Minister and confirmed January 22, 2024 as the date of installation of Lord Ram idol in the Garbhagriha of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh.

"Jai Siya Ram! Today is a day full of emotions. Recently, the officials of Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust had come to meet me at my residence. He has invited me to come to Ayodhya on the occasion of the consecration of Shri Ram Temple. I feel very blessed. It is my good fortune that in my lifetime, I will witness this historic occasion," PM Modi posted on X.

Along with his post on X, the Prime Minister also posted a picture of



functionaries of the trust, which is presiding over the temple's construction at the place where devotees believe Lord Ram was born, extending him an invitation.

Invitation to PM Modi was extended a day after Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat said that the idol of Lord Ram will be installed at the Ayodhya temple on January 22, and asked people to organise programmes at temples across the country to celebrate the occasion.

The consecration of the Ram Lalla idol, which will be a 10-day ritual starting January 14, chairman of the temple construction committee Nripendra Mishra had said in June.

The ground floor work of the three-storey Ram temple has been completed and the Trust has decided to start the process of the consecration of Ram Lalla on Makar Sankranti (January 14).
