Dec 30, 2023
Ayodhya (UP), December 30 (ANI): Ahead of the grand consecration ceremony at Ayodhya’s Ram Temple on January 22, the passengers alighting from the first flight to the newly built Maharishi Valmiki International Airport Ayodhya Dham hailed PM Modi on December 30. They thanked PM Modi for giving them Airport as a gift. Passengers were also seen paying obeisance and chanting Jai Shree Ram while alighting the flight. “This land is pure and sacred, this is the land of Shri Ram. There can be no sacred ground like this. To pay obeisance here one should lie down. When Shri Ram got down from Pushpak Viman, the same experience was felt. There is no limit to happiness today. Today is the matter of greatest joy and happiness in my life,” said Bhaskar Shukla, a passenger from Delhi. On the other hand, another passenger, Nitin Lalwani from a Delhi flight said, “Ever since I was born I found Ayodhya, a city which was backward. But today there is a feeling that Ayodhya has become an international city. Now we are waiting for 22nd January when the Temple will be inaugurated. People will come from across the world to see Ayodhya, a pure land of Shree Ram. “I cannot express my feelings, I am very happy. I came here, especially from Mumbai. I wanted to see PM Modi, which is fulfilled. Being the passenger on the first flight makes me feel so good, here the airport is so good and Ayodhya has totally changed,” a passenger from Mumbai who boarded the inaugural flight to Ayodhya told ANI. Another passenger thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and said, “In these seven, eight months there are a lot of changes in the city that one cannot even think. PM Narendra Modi is another form of Lord Ram. Not only the people of Ayodhya, but the whole country should worship him. Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Maharishi Valmiki International Airport in the temple city.
