The city of Ayodhya sparkled with more than 25 lakh lamps. A divine sight of the festival of lights was seen on Wednesday. A Guinness Book world record was created by lighting 25 lakh 12 thousand 585 lamps simultaneously at 55 ghats of Ayodhya. On the banks of Saryu, 1,121 Vedacharyas performed Saryu Aarti together. This has happened for the first time in Ayodhya. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath reached the temple of Lord Ram and had darshan even before the beginning of the Deepotsav. After this he lit a lamp in the courtyard of the new Ram temple. Yogi reached Saryu Ghat. At Ram's Paadi, he worshiped Saryu Maiya in a formal manner amid chanting of mantras.
This festival of lights of Ayodhya is also special because this is the first Diwali after 500 years, when a huge temple of Lord Ram has been built again in Ayodhya. Ramlala is seated in his supernatural temple. The roads, streets and intersections of Ayodhya were all shining with lights. The entire Ayodhya was decorated in a grand manner. A glimpse of the heritage of Sanatan Dharma and Diwali of Tretayug was seen in Ayodhya. Before the festival of lights, 1,121 saints and sages performed a grand aarti at Saryu Ghat. Yogi performed the aarti of the artists who came in the form of Lord Ram and Sita. He himself pulled the chariot of Lord Ram in the tableau. Worshiped Lord Ram in Ram temple. Along with this, Yogi gave a strong message to the opponents.
Yogi gave a befitting reply to those doing politics on Diwali. Gave a stern warning to those who opposed Sanatan Dharma. On the construction of Ram temple, Yogi Adityanath said in a dig that we have done what we said. Yogi said that there was a time when neither the road in Ayodhya was good, nor the ghat of Saryu was in good condition, whoever came to Ayodhya used to leave disappointed. The previous governments had left Ayodhya in its state of disrepair and some people were even questioning the existence of Lord Ram.
Yogi said that those who neglected Lord Ram and raised questions on him, must see these pictures of Ayodhya today. Targeting the Samajwadi Party, Yogi said that those who opened fire on Ram devotees in Ayodhya and shed their blood, when construction of Ram temple started and lands were acquired, they started saying that farmers and businessmen were harassed. going. Now they are becoming a hindrance in the development of Ayodhya.
Thirdly, Samajwadi Party and Congress repeated their mistake regarding Ram Temple. He once again opposed the Deepotsav in Ayodhya. One took the name of discrimination while the other made the excuse of filth being spread by oil lamps. Considering the enthusiasm of people towards Deepotsav on the occasion of Diwali in Ayodhya, the stand of Samajwadi Party and Congress seems childish. This is the same work which he had done at the time of consecration. Ram's temple has been built in Ayodhya, Ramlala has been installed, after this it is the first Diwali. Everyone should celebrate it together. What is the use of creating controversy on this? But the controversy was not only about the Deepotsav of Ayodhya, questions were also raised on firecrackers and fireworks. (Rajat Sharma)
