President Murmu writes to PM ahead of Pran Pratishtha
President Murmu complimented the Prime Minister ahead of the ‘Pran Pratishtha’. In her letter to the PM, she said that the nationwide celebratory atmosphere is an uninhibited expression of India’s eternal soul and the start of a new cycle in the country’s resurgence. “As you prepare yourself to go for ‘Pran Pratishtha’ of Prabhu Shri Ram’s ‘murti’ (idol) at the new temple built at his birthplace in Ayodhya, I can only contemplate the unique civilisational journey that will be accomplished with each step taken by you in the hallowed precincts,” she said.
President Murmu, in her letter, also referred to the 11-day rigorous ‘anushthan’ the prime minister has undertaken, and said that it is not only a sacred ritual but also a supreme spiritual act of sacrifice and submission to Lord Ram. “We all are fortunate to witness the commencement of a new cycle in the resurgence of our nation,” she added.
