One year after the epochal Pran Prathishtha of the Ram Mandir, has life in Ayodhya truly changed for its residents?
Is the town living up to the dreams of millions who see it as a global spiritual center?
Our latest ground report by Ankit delves into these questions, offering an intimate look at Ayodhya's transformation.
From the heartwarming tale of devotees like Deepa ji who traveled all the way from New Zealand to fulfill her lifelong wish to visit the temple the year it opened, the stories are both inspiring and complex.
Upon landing at Ayodhya's airport, Deepa ji rose from her wheelchair and, in reverence to the Ram Janmabhoomi, bowed to touch the sacred soil as she deboarded the aircraft.
Over the past year, many such stories have emerged — the culmination of life-long dream of seeing Ram lalla in his abode.
In Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh’s most visited city in 2024, businesses are thriving, infrastructure is expanding, and the influx of pilgrims is reshaping the town. Ayodhya has welcomed 135 million tourists this year.
But challenges loom — uneven growth, congested streets, and soaring hotel prices test the patience of locals and visitors alike.
Why did Ayodhya’s development not prevent a political upset for the BJP in Faizabad? Is there a gap between expectations and reality? And what lies ahead for this ancient city as it balances faith and modernity?
