In the video, the PM has silver ‘chhattra’ offerings for Lord Ram as he walked slowly inside the temple.
The post read: “The supernatural moment of the consecration of Shri Ram Lala’s life in Ayodhya Dham is going to leave everyone emotional. It is my great pleasure to be a part of this divine program. Hail Siya Ram!”
Dressed in a golden kurta and cream dhoti and patka, he walked into the sanctum sanctorum of the temple holding the silver ‘chhattra’ on a folded red dupatta.
