Ayodhya, Apr 4: Champat Rai , the General Secretary of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra, expressed concerns regarding Ayodhya's preparedness for the upcoming Ram Navami festivities due to the approaching summer season and the large numbers of devotees expected to visit the holy city.
"Devotees between 1 lakh and 1 lakh 50 thousand are coming here to offer prayer to Ram Lalla. The number of devotees has increased after Pran Pratishtha. At the Holi Milan, I received information that a huge crowd came. Ram Navami is coming ahead. But is Ayodhya ready to welcome a large number of guests?" - Champat Rai, General Secretary of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra
The Pran Pratishtha ceremony of Bhagwan Ram's idol took place on January 22, 2024. However, Rai highlighted the challenges that Ayodhya faces, particularly concerning the anticipated influx of over 2 lakh guests during Ram Navami.
“"Heat is the biggest challenge. More than 2 lakh guests coming here (on Ram Navami) will be a big challenge. water is available, but still, food is a challenge. Till now, no incident of stampede has been witnessed here, and we hope that this will not happen in the future either" - Champat Rai, General Secretary of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra ”

Ram Navmi is celebrated all over India every year on the last day of Chaitra Navaratri to mark the birth of Bhagwan Ram. On this auspicious day, young girls, representing the nine forms of the goddess Durga, are offered gifts and Prasad
“"We request that you all be with your groups while visiting the Ram Temple. I also request that the people coming here bring 'sattu' with them and eat it; it will save them from heat. Many suggested organising 'darshan' for 22 hours, but that is also not possible. 'Ram lalla ko 24 ghante jaga kr rakhenge kya?" - Champat Rai, General Secretary of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra ”
