Ram Navami: Traffic, security arrangements in place at Ayodhya's Ram Temple for grand celebrations

Ram Navami 2025: Ahead of the Ram Navami celebrations on Sunday (April 6), security and traffic arrangements have been made in Uttar Pradesh's Ayodhya for the grand event. IG Ayodhya range Praveen Kumar said that Ayodhya has been divided into different zones and sectors. Heavy vehicles will be diverted via the Purvanchal Expressway to ensure no inconvenience for pilgrims. Alternative arrangements similar to those made during the Mahakumbh are in place, he said. "Paramilitary forces, along with PAC and civil police, will be deployed for security. Meanwhile, NDRF, SDRF and water police are also on alert around Saryu river,” the IG said. All special passes for the Ram Temple will be cancelled during peak hours from 9:00 am till noon, and priority will be given to regular pilgrims for temple visits.

Ayodhya Divisional Commissioner Gaurav Dayal said all preparations have been completed by the administration for the smooth visit and worship of pilgrims coming to Ayodhya for the Ram Navami festival. Preparations have been made to ensure that pilgrims do not face any problem.

Systematic arrangement to manage the crowd 

Lessons from innovations in crowd control during the Mahakumbh have been applied to manage crowds and provide facilities to pilgrims, Dayal said. Arrangements for shade and mats have been made at major sites, including the Ram Temple and Hanuman Garhi, to protect pilgrims from heat and Sun, the Divisional Commissioner said, adding that cool drinking water will be available at all major sites.
