Ayodhya: The first image of the idol of Ram Lalla in the Ayodhya Ram temple is out. In a significant prelude to the Pran Prathishta ceremony on January 22, the idol was installed in the sanctum sanctorum of the newly built grand temple with full rituals on Thursday evening.
On January 16, ETV Bharat, had claimed quoting reliable sources, that the picture which has Lord Ram in dark complexion and that was published on the invitation card being distributed by Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust is actually the statue of Lord Shri Ram which will be given a place in the sanctum sanctorum.
Following this, when the photo of statue surfaced late on Thursday night, ETV Bharat's claim proved to be 100% true. ETV Bharat had also earlier reported that the idol would hold a bow and arrow in its hand. Along with this, the image of tenderness and incarnation of Lord Vishnu will be seen from the child in Ram Lalla. However, no photo of Ram Lalla was released by Ram Janmabhoomi Trust.
After this, ANI released a photo on social media account X quoting VHP leader Sharad Sharma. In this, it was claimed that the idol of Ram Lalla would be installed in the womb. After this this statue appeared.
