It reflects their faith and satisfaction," he remarked. Barot described the simultaneous lighting of 2.5 million lamps as a historic first for the planet. "What happened yesterday instilled pride among the people of Ayodhya. There's a sense of achievement that I believe will enhance productivity and create a positive atmosphere," he said. The event showcased not just the strength of the organization but also the deep devotion of the people. "Seeing so many come together to express their faith, taking off their shoes and walking to the temple, is a valuable lesson in unity and commitment," Barot added. The remarkable synchronization displayed by 32,000 individuals, all lighting their lamps at the same moment, was nothing short of inspiring. "This is no small feat," he said, highlighting the collaborative spirit that drove this event. In conclusion, Barot's experience in Ayodhya has left him with lasting impressions of faith and dedication. "Breaking one's own record is not a trivial matter. It signifies that we are becoming stronger day by day," he concluded, reflecting on the unifying power of such significant achievements. (ANI)
