AYODHYA: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on November 25, offered prayers at the Saptmandir at the Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir premises, ahead of the Dhwajarohan ceremony at the Mandir. The Saptmandir houses Mandirs related to Maharshi Vashishtha, Maharshi Vishwamitra, Maharshi Agastya, Maharshi Valmiki, Devi Ahilya, Nishadraj Guha and Mata Shabari.
This was followed by a visit to the Sheshavtar Mandir at the Ram Mandir premises.
PM Modi will hoist the sacred saffron flag atop the Mandir’s 191-foot-high shikhara at noon today, symbolising the completion of the Mandir’s construction and ushering in a new chapter of cultural celebration and national unity, at noon today. The Prime Minister will also address the gathering on this historic occasion.
The ‘Dharma Dhwaj’ carries three sacred symbols, Om, the Sun and the Kovidara tree, each representing profound spiritual values rooted in the Sanatan tradition.
The Kovidar tree is a hybrid of the Mandar and Parijat trees, created by Rishi Kashyap, showcasing ancient plant hybridisation. The Sun represents Bhagwan Ram’s Suryavansh lineage, and Om is the eternal spiritual sound. Hoisting of the flag to coincide with the Abhijit Muhurat of Shri Ram and Maa Sita’s Vivah Panchami.
Earlier today, PM Modi held a roadshow in Ayodhya ahead of the Dhwajarohan ceremony at the Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir, where he was greeted by hundreds of devotees holding the tricolour as he headed to the Ram Mandir for the ceremony.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and RSS Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagwat will also be present at the occasion. CM Yogi called the event the “renaissance of Sanatan culture.”
In an X post, CM Yogi wrote, “In the foremost of the seven sacred cities, the divine Shri Ayodhya Dham, today, from the sacred hands of the honourable Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji, a grand saffron flag is about to be hoisted atop the spire of the Bhagwan Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir.”
