AYODHYA: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has landed in Uttar Pradesh’s Ayodhya to take part in the flag-hoisting ceremony at the Ram Janmabhoomi Temple on Tuesday.
“Landed in Ayodhya to take part in the Dhwajarohan Utsav at the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir,” PM Modi wrote in a Facebook post.
PM Modi will hoist the sacred saffron flag atop the 191-foot-high shikhara of the Ayodhya Ram Janmabhoomi Temple during a special flag-hoisting ceremony.
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 Lord 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.
The Prime Minister will ceremonially hoist the flag, symbolising the completion of the temple’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.
