Our ancestors had fought and struggled hard and the end result is here with the construction of temple of Maryadapurush Lord Ram whose Pran Pratistha is scheduled for tomorrow. On this occasion, I congratulate all the Indian nationals and Janakpur also is in state of joyousness," ANI qouted Pramod Kumar Chaudhary, former chairman of the Shree Ram Youth Committee.
