Ayodhya Ram Mandir: New priests assigned duty, use of smartphones banned; dress code will also be implemented

New priests have been put on duty in Ram Mandir. Many tough rules have also been made for the priests. In this sequence, the use of smartphones in Ram Mandir has also been banned for the priests. Soon there is a preparation to implement a dress code for the priests. Currently, 14 priests are on duty in Ram Mandir.

Priests have been divided into two groups of seven each for worship in Ram Mandir, Kuber Tila, and Hanuman Mandir. Their duty is also being assigned to two different shifts. Four priests have been put on duty in the sanctum sanctorum and three priests outside the sanctum sanctorum. Now the priests will not be able to use the phone in the temple. This will include a yellow chaubandi, dhoti, kurta, and yellow turban on the head. Saffron colored dress will also be included.

Training of the second batch of priests soon

Preparations are also being made to start the training of the second batch of priests soon. A total of 19 temples are being built in the Ramjanmabhoomi complex, so the number of priests will be increased.

Ram is in everyone so why are there so many restrictions to seeing him: Medha Patkar.

Narmada Bachao Andolan founder member and social activist Medha Patkar said that Ram is in everyone so why are there so many restrictions to see Ram? After visiting Ayodhya, it felt that the temples here are now turning into hotels. Where money is necessary to go. Medha Patkar was speaking as the chief guest in the martyrdom day function organized on the centenary year of Kakori Action on Thursday at the Press Club located in Civil Lines.

She said that what kind of development is this in Ayodhya where people have to depend on others even for two meals a day? Those who lost their land in the temple and surrounding areas did not get proper compensation. She said that every youth needs to come forward in the fight for justice. Referring to the Sambhal violence, she said that religious yantras are taken out at night instead of day and unnecessary violence is born. The contribution of the martyrs of Kakori Action is not being remembered. Martyrs fought for freedom on the land of Faizabad too, but their contribution was forgotten. Even today, we have to struggle to save rivers like the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saryu.

Urdu poet and social worker Gauhar Raza said that one has to struggle to dream of a better society and country. Hundreds of martyrs like Ram Prasad Bismil, Ashfaqulla Khan, and Roshan Singh dreamt and struggled to build a better country and society.
