Saffron Fervor Grips Bengaluru: City Celebrates New Beginning Of 'Ram Rajya'

The new Ram Lalla idol was consecrated at the Ayodhya temple on Monday, an event led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and witnessed by millions through televised broadcasts in homes and temples nationwide. Meanwhile, the streets of Bengaluru were adorned with saffron flags and Lord Ram posters, with large screens set up across the city for live streaming the Ayodhya ceremony.

Early morning saw special worship sessions initiated in most temples and mutts. Festivities commenced in residential complexes from the crack of dawn, featuring chants and exclusive poojas.

Purva Atmosphere on Thanisandra Main Road facilitated live streaming of the inauguration within the community hall of the apartment complex.

Similar to the Ram Navami festival, numerous individuals took to the streets, erecting pandals where panaka (juice), kosambari (salad), and other treats like laddu were generously distributed to the public. Renowned city restaurants, including Rameshwaram Cafe, organized the distribution of panaka and kosambari, while others offered sweets to all visitors in honor of the occasion.

Jai Shri Ram from Bengaluru.
