Amidst the anticipatory fervor for the impending inauguration of the Ram Mandir, skilled confectioners hailing from Varanasi and Gujarat have embarked on a significant undertaking in Ayodhya. With unwavering dedication, they are meticulously crafting 45 tonnes of laddus infused with pure desi ghee, destined to be presented as 'prasad' during the momentous Pran Pratishtha ceremony scheduled for January 22.

Initiating this sugary endeavor on January 6, the confectioners maintain a relentless pace, churning out approximately 1200 kg of delectable laddus daily. Their collective goal is to produce the designated 45 tonnes before the grand ceremony unfolds. The traditional sweet, a beloved delicacy in North India, holds cultural significance and adds a sweet touch to the auspicious occasion.

As the confectioners diligently pursue their culinary mission, invitations for the grand event have been extended to various dignitaries and celebrities. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to grace the Pran Pratishtha ceremony, joining a host of esteemed personalities from across the country. Notably, the ceremony has garnered global attention, attracting invitations even from abroad.

However, not all political figures are participating in the celebration. Key Congress leaders, including national president Mallikarjun Kharge, former president Sonia Gandhi, and Lok Sabha Leader of the Opposition Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, have declined the invitation, categorizing the event as an "RSS/BJP event."

In preparation for the main ceremony, Vedic rituals for the 'Pran-Pratishtha' of Ram Lalla will commence on January 16, a week prior to the grand event. The responsibility of conducting these sacred rituals falls upon Varanasi-based priest Lakshmi Kant Dixit, who will oversee the proceedings on January 22.

The festivities in Ayodhya extend beyond the ceremonial day, encompassing the Amrit Mahotsav from January 14 to January 22. Additionally, a 1008 Hundi Mahayagya is scheduled, where thousands of devotees will be provided with sustenance. To accommodate the influx of devotees, tent cities are being erected in Ayodhya, creating a vibrant atmosphere for the grand 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony in Uttar Pradesh.
