Ram Lalla’s face revealed ahead of temple opening on Monday
The first glimpse of the face of Ram Lalla was shared on Friday ahead of the pran pratishtha on January 22.
In the photos that appeared on social media, the five-year-old Lord Ram can be seen standing with a golden bow and arrow in his hand.
The images are from the workshop where the idol was made by Mysuru’s sculptor Arun Yogiraj. The eyes of the idol will only be uncovered on January 22 — 12.30pm the muhurtam of the consecration.
BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra shared a photo of Ram Lalla’s uncovered face and wrote, “The beautiful photo of Lord Shri Ram fills the heart with joy.”
On Thursday, the 51-inch black stone idol was placed in the sanctum sanctorum covered with a cloth. The first photo of the Ram Lalla that was shared by the Vishva Hindu Parishad was of the black statue, eyes covered with a yellow cloth.
The pre-consecration ceremonies that started a week ago on January 16 entered the 4th day on Friday. The holy fire for the worship will be established today.
