Ayodhya: In Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, preparations for the Pran Pratishtha ceremony of Ram Lalla on January 22 are underway, and security measures have been intensified.
The Uttar Pradesh police force, responsible for Ayodhya’s security, has arrived in the town and is actively patrolling by land, water, and air.
