- At the Ram Navami festival, followers could engage in darshan from the early hours of the morning, commencing with the Shringaar Aarti of Ram Lalla at 5 a.m. Offerings were presented at the temple exit after the Shayan Aarti. Emphasis was placed on securely storing belongings outside the temple premises to facilitate the darshan process.
- Ram Janmabhoomi is celebrating a grand event for the second time after the pran pratishtha ceremony. Ram Navami is being celebrated with grandeur at Ram Mandir, featuring offerings of 56 types of bhog, prasad, and panjiri.
