The sacred ceremony is scheduled to begin at 6:30 AM today and will continue until June 5.

Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is set to attend the Saryu Jayanti Janmotsav celebrations in Ayodhya on June 5, according to Mahant Rajkumar Das Maharaj, head of Shriramvallabhkunj.

The event will be organised by the Anjaneya Sewa Trust. The event will be held from June 5 to 11 and the week-long celebration will feature devotional events, rituals, and spiritual discourses.

Speaking about the upcoming celebrations, Mahant Rajkumar Das Maharaj said, "Anjaneya Sewa Trust celebrates Saryu Jayanti Janmotsav. This year, the event will be held from 5 to 11 June. CM Yogi Adityanath will inaugurate the event by lighting a lamp and during the evening, 'Katha' will be organised...

The work of developing Ayodhya is gaining momentum under the leadership of CM Yogi Adityanath... Therefore, he might make any announcements...," he said.

Earlier, Ayodhya officials had begun action to ban meat sales along key religious routes like Ram Path and Dharma 14 Kosi Marg, issuing notices to shopkeepers after complaints were raised at CM Yogi Adityanath's Janata Darbar.

Ayodhya Mayor Girish Pati Tripathi also informed that a liquor ban is also being planned. Speaking to ANI on Saturday, Mayor Tripathi said that discussions regarding the ban had been ongoing for a long time.

"It was under discussion for a very long time that the sale of meat be banned in Ayodhya. It was decided that the sale of meat must be prohibited on Ram Path," said Tripathi. He added that steps would soon be taken to prohibit the sale of liquor in the same areas. "We are sure that we will soon ban liquor sale too...," he told ANI.

The lighting looks absolutely divine! 🙏 This is a historic moment for Ayodhya's transformation. While I support making it a spiritual hub, hope the meat/liquor bans consider livelihoods of small shopkeepers too. Balance is important.

Jai Shri Ram! The temple illumination is breathtaking. My family is planning to visit next month. However, I wish the media would focus more on the spiritual significance rather than just political figures attending. The essence is getting diluted.

As someone from Ayodhya, the development is visible but locals are facing hardships due to constant construction. The government should ensure basic facilities for residents aren't compromised in this religious tourism push. #BalanceNeeded

The photos are mesmerizing! 😍 Taking my elderly parents for the darshan next week. Hope the administration makes proper arrangements for senior citizens and differently-abled devotees. Ram ji would want accessibility for all bhaktas.

While the temple is beautiful, the meat ban seems unnecessary. A truly spiritual place shouldn't need to impose dietary restrictions on surrounding areas. Let people have their preferences while maintaining the sanctity inside.

The lighting ceremony looks straight out of a dream! ✨ My only request - please maintain cleanliness around the temple premises. Saw plastic waste during my last visit. We must honor Ram ji's teachings by keeping Ayodhya clean and green.
