In a recent update, the Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya has banned the use of mobile phones within its premises. This decision was made by the Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra and the Ayodhya administration to address security concerns and ensure the comfort of devotees.
Request to Devotees
Temple trustee Anil Mishra has asked all visitors to follow this new rule. To make it easier for devotees, cloakroom facilities are available near the temple to store mobile phones and other valuables. Mishra said, "In a recent meeting with the administration, we discussed security and the comfort of devotees, which led to this decision. We kindly request all devotees to comply with this ruling and use the provided facilities to store their mobile phones and valuables."
