Ayodhya foundation of Sanatan Dharma: CM Yogi

Ayodhya, Mar 21 (UNI) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Friday highlighted the remarkable rise in Ayodhya’s spiritual prominence, stating that while only 2.34 lakh devotees visited the city in 2016-17, over 16 crore people are arriving to catch a glimpse of Lord Shri Ram in 2025.
“This reflects the growing glory and grandeur of Ayodhya,” he said.
The Chief Minister made these remarks as the chief guest at the grand inauguration of the Timeless Ayodhya Literature Festival. He began the event with a symbolic gesture—offering water to an Ashoka plant amidst Vedic chanting. Applauding Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he noted that the Prime Minister has revived Indian traditions by seamlessly blending heritage with development, marking a new beginning for the nation.
