Lucknow: In anticipation of the Ram Temple ceremony ‘Pran Pratishtha’ scheduled for January 22, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has announced the closure of all schools and colleges in the state on that day.

[metamatar]

man the way congress is presenting their refusal to attend the ram mandir ceremony is so fucking suspect no one in this country dares to actually say no to the hindutva narrative. it is evil to celebrate the illegal and violent destruction of a mosque and the contruction of a temple at that site, a move long planned and dreamed of by members of right wing organisation that is among other things infamous for assassinating gandhi for being too soft on muslims. how hard was that? no instead they're waffling about how its not enough of a separation of church and state and party and govt.

So.. I have had this story since I had watched rrr...

Soo.. We know the first r of rrr mean fire then the third water, what about the second one? It could go for grass.!

So y/n was friends with ram and seetha when they were children,y/n was the Princess of a nearby small kingdom under which the village of ram came in, and her father was a great king who loved his daughter, sadly the general's wife wanted Y/n as her own daughter so the Britishers had invaded the kingdom too the same day they had killed ram's father and killed reader's parents in front of her and took her away in front of little ram making him think she died.

Now reader all grown up, was given a new identity Alice Scott, or any other English name you prefer. Reader was with her now parents in the village of bheem on hunting with her father, taking care of the little fawn whose mother her father had killed, suddenly she hears scream and runs away on her horse and saves malli's mother by kicking the Britisher who was about to hurt her by her horse. Then as her parents left. She apologises to the villagers kindly and promises to bring back their child.

When they reach back she takes care of malli with her cousin Jennifer. One day when she was attending the council with her mother discussion about the gond's warrior who was coming for the child, she sees ram there again for the first time and grows a small attraction towards him, which general's wife notices, she then tasks him to bring back the warrior, because of her daughter and the officer who had suggested his name.

So reader is a rebel person, she disguised herself as man and goes towards ram's house to see him, but ram quickly sees her and grabs her throat and pins her down the table but then loses his grip when reader's caps falls down and her long hair too,shocking him, reader then asks him to be her friend and he gradually agrees,then they spend a lot of time together, with bheem too.

Then when ram was bit by the snake and bheem takes care of him, reader comes there too and helps bheem before going to her father’s knighthood ceremony, ram then sees a small kaan ki baali on her neck and realises it was of his little friend all those years ago as he was the one who had bought it for her for her birthday but was scared to give it to her thinking it was much smaller than the gifts she would receive as a Princess but reader still takes it kindly and keeps it safe.

Bheem then reveals who is and reader supports him wanting revenge for her actual parents.

Then in the ceremony reader tries to give malli to bheem but the officer at the gate keeping drags them both away. When ram had grabbed bheem by the rope he decides for second to let go but then sees that general Scott had placed a man pointing the gun at his daughter and smirking at ram knowing he can't have her hurt, so when the animated interval scene goes, the tear of reader turns the rope into a grass, in one side its turning into fire, symbolising that if fire meets grass it will surely perish but one side showing it grown,symbolising if it goes to water it will grow.

So when bheem is getting whipped. reader is up in the place glaring at ram and taking care of jenny, when the whipping stops she runs down and doesn't even looks at Ram as she tries to balm Bheem's wounds

Reader then helps bheem escape but then has to run away with him too, there they meet with seetha again and seetha tells them the reality, and reader about who he really was, reader hugs seetha and goes with bheem to get ram back, when bheem meets ram in the underground jail ram's first question was about reader, meanwhile reader is waiting for both of them outside the jail walls and sees them coming towards her, they three fight but reader gets hurt including ram so she patches herself with orange cloth in the mandir where they were resting making her look like the seetha of ramayana. Then bheem yn and ram fight all together and they kill general Scott, reader bidding adieu to her mother, who was cruel and merciless to other but surprisingly took great care of her. Then in the end they all reunite and ram and reader became the king and Queen of reader's kingdom after taking it back by war with the Britishers. The end scene of the movie is there marriage.

Fun fact of the story :- the reader's name is actually seetha and I had changed alia bhatts character name to Shanta, who was actually the sister of ram. So yeah if you are OK seetha is reader and Shanta is alia. I was having this idea for way too long and I feel relieved letting it out..

first that's a lot of text but also that's a REAL good idea. I like the interval scene visualization of grass, fire and water you offered. that was really cool. I would play with it a lot more if I were to write this fic. the angst potential is unreal lmao. but over all its a real real real good idea and I'm happy you found my asks a nice place to let this out!!!

[hum-suffer]

Hi! I'm sorry in advance for ranting as I wanted a safe space for my thoughts and i also wanted your advice since you're older than me. On 22nd jan my best friend and i were having a casual conversation where she asks me if I had seen the ram mandir pran pratishta ceremony and i replied yes. Then she begins to say that "now that this is done all the 'chuslims' will finally be driven out of the country and 'gora pakoras' like you will start reading the gita instead of watching english films " ( a little background on my bff - apparently she's a 'sanatani 'and she's super islamophobic because she thinks Muslims have unfair reservations in NEET). I was extremely offended by this statement and then for controlling the damage she says "I was joking, calm down". Am I wrong for choosing to be friends with people regardless of their religion? Do I have to hate them for our history?Sorry once again for this long rant hope you understand 🙏

Love S ❤

Hi, it's completely fine, don't worry! I don't mind listening, ever.

And honestly, your friend seems to be a bit misguided. Hatred for hatred isn't the solution. Yes, one should be aware and ignorance will always cause more damages than anything else, but radicalism isn't the answer. I do agree that Muslims do have unfair reservations and that there is much disparity between how Hindus are treated compared to the abrahamic religions in India.

However, you are not wrong at all for making friends with people regardless of their religion. As long as you and they have an understanding of each other and accept that there have been atrocities in our past, it is your personal choice to befriend anyone. No one can rule what you decide to do, darling. The company you keep as well as the thoughts you have, are completely your own.

I personally do not have any Muslim friends, because more often than not I've been accused of radical Islamophobia when I was only trying to talk about the history. Islamic invaders have forcefully converted as well as brutalised the Hindu population of India and people do need to be aware of the fact that Hindus of the past and the present have faced multiple atrocities.

In the end, all I'd like to say is: you're not wrong for choosing your friends in any way. Trust your instincts and judgement to make friends, focus on their personality, regardless of their religion. You never have to hate them— you are the one that controls your emotions and reactions, darling. No one can force anything otherwise

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has inaugurated a grand temple to Hindu god Ram in the flashpoint city of Ayodhya.

He said it heralded "a new era" for India - the temple replaces a 16th-Century mosque torn down by Hindu mobs in 1992, sparking riots in which nearly 2,000 people died.

Top film stars and cricketers were among guests at the event in Ayodhya.

But some Hindu seers and most of the opposition boycotted it, saying Mr Modi was using it for political gain.

General elections are due in India in the next few months and Mr Modi's political rivals say the governing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will be seeking votes in the temple's name in a country where 80% of the population is Hindu.

Critics have also accused the government of exploiting a religious celebration in a country which - according to its constitution - is secular. For Muslims, India's biggest minority, the event evoked fear and painful memories, members of the community in Ayodhya told the BBC in the run-up to Monday's ceremony.

Televised live, it showed Mr Modi performing religious rituals inside the temple's sanctum along with priests and Mohan Bhagwat, head of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) - the ideological fountainhead of Hindu nationalist parties.

The complex history of India's Ayodhya holy site

Transforming a flashpoint holy city into the ‘Hindu Vatican’

"Today's date will go down in history," Mr Modi said after the event. "After years of struggle and countless sacrifices, Lord Ram has arrived [home]. I want to congratulate every citizen of the country on this historic occasion."

The temple has been constructed at a cost of $217m (£170m), funded from private donations. Only the ground floor was opened - the rest is expected to be completed by the end of the year. The construction work is part of a revamp for the city, estimated to cost more than $3bn.

The building of the Ram temple in Ayodhya fulfils a decades-long Hindu nationalist pledge. Many Hindus believe the Babri mosque was built by Muslim invaders on the ruins of a temple where the Hindu god was born.

The movement to build the temple helped propel the BJP into political prominence in the 1990s.

There was a festive atmosphere as tens of thousands of chanting Hindu devotees waved flags and beat drums - military helicopters showered flower petals on the temple. Saffron flags with pictures of Lord Ram line streets in the city festooned with marigolds, as do banners with the faces of Mr Modi and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.

Some of India's biggest celebrities, including Bollywood star Amitabh Bachchan and cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, attended.

Transforming a flashpoint holy city into the ‘Hindu Vatican’

In many other northern cities Hindus lit lamps, and saffron flags carrying images of Ram are fluttering on rooftops, including in several parts of Delhi. Cinemas screened the event, and big screens relayed pictures from Ayodhya to town squares and residential neighbourhoods.

The ceremony, called Pran Pratishtha, which loosely translates from Sanskrit into "establishment of life force", lasted about an hour. Hindus believe that chanting mantras and performing rituals around a fire will infuse sacred life in an idol or a photograph of a deity.

Several domestic TV stations built huge sets by the side of the river Saryu, a tributary of the Ganges, just behind the temple, and provided wall-to-wall coverage of the event, some proclaiming the moment of consecration as the start of "Ram Rajya" (Lord Ram's rule) in India.

Hindus celebrated the inauguration in other countries too. Massive billboards of Lord Ram graced Times Square in New York, where a group of devotees braved the freezing weather to gather in the middle of the night.

Temples all across the United Kingdom - where Indians are one of the largest diaspora groups - marked the event. Colourful posters had been shared inviting devotees to honour the occasion and celebrations involved flowers, sweets and music. There were also some celebrations in Muslim-majority Dubai - where Indians are a significant population - but from Indian news reports these appeared more muted than elsewhere.

In 2019, the Supreme Court gave the disputed land to Hindus after a protracted legal battle followed the mosque's demolition. Muslims were given a plot outside the city for a mosque but have yet to build one.

One member of the community the BBC spoke to in Ayodhya ahead of Monday's inauguration agreed that Hindus have the right to build the temple after the Supreme Court gave them the site.

"We did not accept that decision happily, but what can we do," he said. Another man said he was happy Hindus are building the temple - "but we are also sad because it was built after destroying a mosque".

The new three-storey temple - made with pink sandstone and anchored by black granite - stretches across 7.2 acres in a 70-acre complex. A 51-inch (4.25-ft) statue of the deity, specially commissioned for the temple, was unveiled last week. The idol has been placed on a marble pedestal in the sanctum sanctorum.

Thousands of police were deployed for Monday's event, despite Mr Modi having appealed to pilgrims not to turn up and to watch the ceremony on television. In many states a full or half day holiday was called, with schools and colleges closed and stock markets shut.

The build-up to a demolition that shook India

The man who helped Lord Ram win the Ayodhya case

But a sour note was struck with some top religious seers saying that as the temple was not yet complete, it was against Hinduism to perform the rituals there, and many opposition leaders deciding to stay away.

Some opposition-ruled states also announced their own plans for the day - West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said she would pray at the iconic temple to goddess Kali in Kolkata and then lead an all-faith rally. The eastern state of Odisha (Orissa) unveiled huge plans to bring pilgrims to the Jagannath temple in Puri, one of the holiest sites for Hindus.

Authorities say they expect more than 150,000 visitors per day once the temple in Ayodhya is fully ready.

To accommodate this expected rush, new hotels are being built and existing ones spruced up as part of a major makeover and in recent weeks, a new airport and railway station have opened.

Officials say they are building a "world-class city where people come as pilgrims and tourists", but many local people have told the BBC that their homes, shops and "structures of religious nature" have been either completely or partially demolished to expand roads and set up other facilities.

Ramlala Pran Pratishtha: बहुत ही दुर्लभ योग में होगी रामलला की प्राण प्रतिष्ठाRamlala Pran Pratishtha:भारत के लिए 22 जनवरी का दिन बहुत शुभ है आपको बता दें कि इस तिथि को इतिहास के पन्नों में सुनहरे अक्षरों में लिखा जाएगा आपको बता दें कि इस दिन अयोध्या के राम मंदिर में प्राण प्रतिष्ठा किया जाएगा

[mariacallous]

Much of India came to a standstill on Jan. 22, when Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi consecrated a temple in the northern city of Ayodhya commemorating Rama, a warrior-king worshipped by Hindus as a god. Schools, colleges, and offices closed and central government offices gave a half-day off to all employees. Some expectant parents even cajoled obstetricians to schedule cesarean sections on the day so that their children are born at the auspicious moment coinciding with the temple’s opening.

Such a public display of religiosity by the Indian government and its leadership may seem peculiar, particularly to those who cherish secularism. But India moved away from the state’s traditional interpretation of secularism a decade ago, when Modi led the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to power. With the next national elections only a few months away, Modi has choreographed the Ram temple consecration to consolidate his Hindu vote (about 80 percent of the country’s population is Hindu). The political intent is clear: Cutouts of Modi grace lampposts on the airport road in Ayodhya, with similar images of Rama added almost as an afterthought. In an audio message on social media this month, Modi said, “God has made me an instrument to represent all the people of India.”

The ongoing construction of Ram Mandir is very controversial in India. From the early 16th century until 1992, a mosque known as Babri Masjid stood on the site—built during the time of the emperor Babur, the first Mughal to rule India. Many Hindus say that Babur destroyed a temple honoring Rama that previously stood on the land, which they believe is Rama’s birthplace. In the 1980s, Hindu activists began a movement to reclaim the site and build a temple there. In December 1992, they razed the mosque, an act that shocked the nation.

But in the past two decades, India has changed, and Hindus clamored for the land to be restored to them. In 2019, the Indian Supreme Court ruled that although the initial act of demolition was illegal, it would offer the site to a Hindu trust to build a temple and grant land elsewhere to a Muslim trust to rebuild a mosque. Although the construction of the Ram Mandir is not yet complete, Modi needs the imagery for his election campaign, and so the consecration will go ahead. Some opposition parties, including the Indian National Congress and the Communist Party of India, did not send their top leadership to the ceremony; however, some Congress leaders were divided over the boycott and at least two attended.

Rama, for many Hindus, is maryada purushottam—the ideal human being who sacrifices himself for others. His is the kind of life to which lesser mortals should aspire; his heroism is based not simply on battlecraft, but upon his ability to put others’ interests before his own. In the Sanskrit epic Ramayana, Rama is the prince of Ayodhya who is about to become king when one of his father’s wives demands that Rama go into exile, and the succession passes to her son instead. Rama leaves with his wife, Sita, and brother Lakshmana. The king of Lanka, Ravana, abducts Sita, and Rama mobilizes an army of monkeys to invade the island fortress, defeating Ravana and rescuing Sita. After 14 years, Rama finally rules Ayodhya, leading to a golden age.

The BJP sees the construction of the Ram Mandir temple as evidence of its single-minded determination, no matter how long it takes. Formed in 1980 by some members of the former Janata Party, the BJP initially struggled electorally. It briefly held power in the 1990s and led a coalition government between 1999 and 2004. In 2014, Modi projected himself as committed to development and boosted the BJP’s vote share to win a majority of seats in parliament with 31 percent of the national vote; five years later, the party increased its tally to 303 seats out of 542, winning 37 percent of the vote. The temple project follows other promises kept by Modi’s government: revoking the special autonomous status of Indian-administered Kashmir and introducing a citizenship act that created a pathway to Indian citizenship for asylum-seekers from neighboring countries but excluded Muslims. Modi has shown that he is the man who gets things done.

The BJP capitalized on three major changes that occurred in India in the 1980s to build its identity and increase its vote share. First, many Indians bristled at how India practiced secularism, perceiving the government as granting special favors to religious communities, such as subsidies for Muslims to perform the Hajj and curriculum exemptions for faith-based schools. Second, Indians were tired of living in an economy beset by sluggish growth and shoddy products due to socialist policies that restricted foreign investment and trade. (That changed in 1991, when the Congress government deregulated the economy.)

Finally, India was a leader in the Non-Aligned Movement, but the appeal of nonalignment was fading with the decline of Soviet influence and the eventual disintegration of the Soviet Union. The Congress party ruled India for most of its first 49 years post-independence, and it was instrumental in developing India’s secularism, socialism, and nonalignment. The BJP took advantage of public disenchantment and stepped into the void, promising “equality for all, appeasement to none,” to promote a market-based economy, and to reset its foreign policy, often aligning with Western interests. (Still, the BJP pursues strategic autonomy in many respects, such as its continuing trade ties with Russia despite Western sanctions.)

Most politicians have the next election on their mind; Modi and the BJP leadership have the next generation in mind. After all, more than 40 percent of Indians have no living memory of the Babri Masjid mosque. Even in the early years, the party began influencing India’s younger generations in the states where it came to power first, changing textbooks and rewriting history to downplay the roles of Mahatma Gandhi and Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru (and his family members who later came to power) and project alternative heroes who were more militant and outwardly Hindu. By promoting Rama as the warrior-king who ruled over an ideal state, the BJP aims to create a constituency of voters who see their identity primarily in religious terms and equate the Hindu faith with the nation of India.

To the BJP’s core voters—the hardwired Hindu nationalists—the party has promised to restore Hindu glories, embodied by the Ram Mandir temple. The events in Ayodhya have set a precedent: Some party activists want to transform more mosques (and, in some instances, churches), claiming they were also built where Hindu temples once stood. The triumphalism around the temple construction is so vicious that not only is it the opposition leaders boycotting the event who are facing criticism, but also four seers of the Hindu faith who have raised a range of objections—including the choice of Modi to perform the ceremony, which they say should be presided over by a priest.

The Hindu nationalist movement’s elevation of Rama over other Hindu deities is also strange. Hinduism is polytheistic, and its literature does not rest on one book. Many interpretations are liberal, and some contradict each other: Skepticism and atheism are also part of certain strands of Hinduism. In the late 1980s, I interviewed Morarji Desai, who had served as India’s prime minister representing the Janata Party. I asked him what he thought of the movement to build the Ram temple on the site of Babri Masjid, and he suggested that the BJP’s ultimate goal was to undermine Hinduism’s pluralism and turn it into a faith with one book (the Ramayana), one place of worship (Ayodhya), and one god (Rama). The slogan now reverberating through Ayodhya and much of India is Jai Shri Ram, or “Victory to Lord Rama.”

Rama is an exceptionally interesting and nuanced literary figure and well-loved outside of India, especially in Southeast Asia. But many Indians do not take kindly to works that present Rama in a different light, such as the late poet A.K. Ramanujan’s celebrated essay, “Three Hundred Ramayanas,” which shows how the epic’s characters appear in different forms and offer different interpretations in India and beyond. Nina Paley’s charming 2008 animated film that draws on the Ramayana, Sita Sings the Blues, was also controversial. The latest victim of this outrage is a Tamil film released on Netflix last month, Annapoorani, about the daughter of a Hindu priest who wants to be a chef; her Muslim friend encourages her to pursue her dream, correctly citing a verse from the Ramayana that shows that Rama ate meat. Some Hindus who practice vegetarianism for religious reasons were offended; Netflix withdrew the film, and the actor who played the protagonist issued a public apology on a “Jai Shri Ram” letterhead.

India is no longer a land of nuances. A significant part of its population wants an assertive government and a black-and-white narrative where subjugated Hindus are reclaiming their identity, and the foreigners who colonized the country in the past—the British and, before them, Muslims—are cast as villains. Such an approach risks turning a multidimensional country into a cardboard caricature of itself. The Ram temple consecration marked another milestone on that path—which Modi walks in the hope of getting elected once again.

History of the Ram mandir in Ayodhya: you need to know

For millions of Hindus, Ayodhya remains a sacred and venerated place, drawing pilgrims and devotees from across the country and beyond. The city is not just a historical or mythological site but a living symbol of faith and devotion for many. Pilgrims visit Ayodhya to participate in religious ceremonies, visit Ram mandir, and immerse themselves in the cultural and spiritual heritage associated with Lord Rama. The city’s significance extends beyond its historical and religious importance, as it continues to play a central role in shaping the cultural and social fabric of India.
