Ayodhya Ram Mandir Sees Unprecedented Surge in Devotees, Trust Appeals for Postponed VisitsrnrnThe Ram Mandir in Ayodhya has witnessed an “unprecedented increase” in the number of devotees over the past three days, prompting the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust to issue an appeal. The Trust has requested devotees from nearby areas to postpone their visits to February to accommodate the large influx of pilgrims arriving from distant locations.rnrnIn a statement posted on X, the Trust highlighted the challenges of managing the overwhelming crowd. “It is becoming increasingly difficult to ensure darshan of Ram Lalla to every devotee in a single day, considering the size and population of the holy town,” the Trust said. The appeal comes as the mukhya Snan (main bathing ritual) for Mauni Amavasya at Kumbh in Prayagraj is set to take place on January 29,2025,with an estimated 10 crore devotees expected to participate.rnrnThe Trust emphasized that the surge in visitors has lead to logistical challenges, with devotees having to walk longer distances due to the crowd. “We humbly request devotees from nearby areas to plan their visit to Ayodhya 15-20 days later, allowing those coming from distant places to have an easier darshan experience at present,” the Trust stated. It also noted that the weather in February would be more pleasant, making it an ideal time for visits.rnrnHere’s a summary of the key points:rnrn| Key Information | Details |rn|———————-|————-|rn| Event | Unprecedented surge in devotees at Ram Mandir |rn| Reason | Mukhya Snan at Kumbh in Prayagraj |rn| Appeal | Devotees from nearby areas urged to postpone visits |rn| Suggested time | February, post-Vasant Panchami |rn| Estimated Devotees | 10 crore at Prayagraj |rnrnThe Trust’s appeal underscores the importance of the Ram Mandir as a spiritual destination and the challenges of managing such large-scale pilgrimages.
