The invitation of Paris Ram Rath Yatra has been shared by Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Khestra Trust which is in the helm of affairs of construction and management of ram Janmabhoomi temple in Ayodhya.

While most of the BJP ruled states in India has declared Jan 22 as a public holiday to witness the Live telecast of the  prāna pratishthā programme from Ayodhya and make holy rituals in all local temple along with lighting of five diyas in every home in the evening to create another Diwali for the Return of  Ram Lalla (the baby lord Rama) in his birthplace from a makeshift arrangements;  the Mauritian Government has decided to grant a one-off special leave for two hours to public servants of the Hindu faith to attend prayers marking the “landmark” inauguration of Ram Temple in Ayodhya on January 22.

As per inputs, India’s Neighbouring country Nepal is also contemplating to declare a holiday on Jan 22, as the Hindu majority country is also being flooded with the sensation of Ram Mandir prāna pratishthā in Ayodhya.

Ayodhya Ram Mandir prāna pratishthā is a huge victory for global Hindu unity.
