Arjun Chetry, a Member of Rabha Hasong Autonomous Council, expressed pride in being able to contribute bamboo for the inauguration ceremony. He mentioned that they were instructed to collect bamboo from the Lampi area, and the bamboo-loaded truck would cover a 1,250 km journey to reach Ayodhya.
The 7,000 bamboo branches were gathered from the Lampi area along the Assam-Meghalaya border and stacked at Gohalkona Kacharipara. The All Assam Divyanga Versatile Association donated these bamboo pieces for use in the Ram Temple's inauguration ceremony.
Simultaneously, Lucknow Joint Commissioner of Police, Law and Order, Upendra Kumar Agarwal, chaired a meeting to discuss alternative routes and security arrangements for the temple consecration event scheduled for January 22.
"Given the consecration ceremony to be held in Ayodhya on January 22, which would be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a meeting was called today by Lucknow Commissionerate where officials of NHAI, traffic police and related Zonal DCP and others were present," the official said.
He said, "During the meeting, there were deliberations to enhance the smoothness of the route leading to Ayodhya, which will be utilized by all the guests and devotees. Currently, people travel to Ayodhya through Kamta to Chinhat Matiyari via Barabanki. However, the usage of the alternative Sultanpur route is declining. Therefore, instructions have been issued to promote awareness of these alternative routes."
In anticipation of the consecration ceremony of the Ram Temple on January 22, security measures and patrolling have been heightened, as confirmed by a senior police officer. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to be present at the event, which is expected to draw numerous VVIP guests from both within the country and abroad.
