Ayodhya Plans Security and Darshan Changes at Ram Temple for Sawan Festival
Ayodhya authorities are preparing for increased security and changes to darshan arrangements at the Ram temple during the Sawan Jhula Mela and Kanwar Yatra, expecting 10 to 15 lakh devotees. From August 8-11 and 23-28, entry without passes may be restricted, with possible temporary suspension of darshan at six sub-temples if crowds grow large. Pass holders will have exclusive access to certain areas, and security measures including more CCTV cameras, additional police, and lighting will be enhanced to manage the anticipated crowds.
