Request devotees coming for darshan not to bring luggage with them: ADG Lucknow Zone

"I would like to request devotees not to bring their suitcases and bags while coming for darshan and keep them at their own places. This will ensure that no inconvenience is faced here. It is also important from the security point of view," the ADG said on Monday.

Modia added that if it is not at all possible to keep their belongings at any other place they can submit them at the citizen help centres and also use the locker facility.

"If it is at all not possible, then citizen help centres have been set up at the temple premises where they can keep their luggage and use the locker facility," he said.

Modi said that the 'darshan' is going on peacefully with devotees coming from different states in buses, trains and cars. A crossing has also been set up for proper traffic management, he informed.

"Several devotees are coming from different states in buses, trains, cars for Lord Ram Lalla's darshan. The darshan is going on peacefully without any inconvenience to others. A crossing has been put in place for devotees coming for darshan," he said.

Speaking on the upcoming Chief Minister's visit to Ayodhya, the ADG said, "The Chief Minister will come to inspect all facilities here and will give us directions."

The ADG said that the police have a detailed crowd management plan in place to control excess crowds coming for darshan in Ayodhya.

"Security arrangements are in place. To control crowds, the police have come up with a detailed plan and will implement it. No one will face any inconvenience," he said.

Devotees thronged in large numbers to Ayodhya on January 23, the first morning after the Pran Pratishtha ceremony of Ram Lalla at the grand temple. Security had to be steeped up at the temple, which witnessed a heavy rush of devotees at its main gate to have 'Darshan' of Lord Ram Lalla.

The 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony of Lord Ram was held at 12.29 pm on January 22, with the main rituals performed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The idol of Ram Lalla was unveiled after the rituals. (ANI)
