Ayodhya's Grand Deepotsav to Set World Records with 28 Lakh Diyas

The first Diwali at the newly inaugurated Ram Temple in Ayodhya aims for world records and promotes local craftsmanship.

The Deepotsav celebration in Ayodhya will feature the lighting of 28 lakh diyas, aiming for a new Guinness World Record.
This year's event is particularly significant as it marks the first Diwali since the inauguration of the Ram Temple in January 2024.
The Sri Ram Janmabhoomi Tirath Kshetra Trust has decided to avoid using Chinese decorative items, promoting local artisans and eco-friendly materials.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighted the celebration as 'special' due to it being the first Diwali in 500 years with Lord Ram in his temple.
Security measures have been heightened with 10,000 personnel, and the event will feature international performances and a drone show.
