Ayodhya gears up for the Ram Temple 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony with enhanced security measures, including the deployment of Anti-Terrorist Squad commandos and artificial intelligence-based anti-mine drones by the UP Police.

In anticipation of the Ram Temple 'Pran Pratishtha' event on January 22, commandos from the Anti-Terrorist Squad in Uttar Pradesh have been strategically placed to fortify security at Ayodhya's Lata Mangeshkar Chowk. This security boost aligns with the upcoming Pran Pratishtha ceremony of Ram Lalla at the grand temple and the subsequent Republic Day celebrations on January 26 in Mainpuri City.

The Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra reported the successful procession of the Lord Shri Ram Lalla idol, culminating with the commencement of the Anand Ramayana recitation in the pavilion. As preparations for the 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony near completion, Ayodhya is gearing up for the inauguration of the Ram Temple with an impregnable security cover.

In an innovative move, the UP Police has introduced artificial intelligence-based anti-mine drones to ensure comprehensive 360-degree security coverage. These drones, combined with the vigilance of trained security forces equipped with artificial intelligence, will be instrumental in safeguarding Ayodhya during significant events.

The religious fervor in Ayodhya is palpable, with a 7-day initiation of Vedic rituals for the 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony of Ram Lalla starting on January 16. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also commenced an 11-day religious exercise leading up to the ceremony. The ceremonial installation of Shri Ram Lalla within the temple's sanctum sanctorum will be presided over by PM Modi.

A total of 121 'acharyas' are conducting the rituals, which are set to continue until January 21. On the consecration day, essential rituals required for the 'Pran Pratishtha' of the Ram Lalla idol will be performed. The ceremony is scheduled to commence at 12:20 pm on January 22, concluding by 1:00 pm. 

In a previous announcement, PM Modi declared a special 11-day 'anushthan' (ritual) leading up to the 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony at Ayodhya's Ram Temple.
