Several states in India have decided to impose a ban on the sale of liquor and meat on 22 January in view of Lord Ram's consecration ceremony.
As the country gears up to see the grand 'Pran Pratistha' ceremony at Ayodhya's Ram Temple, the state administration has implemented a comprehensive plan encompassing advanced security and traffic management for the big day.
The 'Pran Prathistha' ceremony of Ram Lalla in the newly built Ram Janmabhoomi Temple is on January 22. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend the inauguration and will perform the rituals in the sanctum sanctorum of the Ram Temple at around 12.15 pm.
In a bid to maintain the sanctity of the occasion, many states across the country have declared a "dry day" on January 22. A "dry day" is a day when the sale of alcoholic drinks is not allowed.
