From the city of Lord Ram, CM Yogi took a pledge: “We will not allow any evil eye to fall upon Ayodhya.”

On the auspicious occasion of Diwali, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath arrived in Ayodhya—the city of Lord Ram—where he visited the Ram Mandir to offer prayers to Ram Lalla, performed *aarti*, and offered his obeisance by prostrating (*dandavat pranam*). Following this, CM Yogi visited the Hanumangarhi temple to offer prayers and seek the blessings of Bajrangbali (Lord Hanuman). He also visited a *Nishad* (fisherfolk community) settlement to share the joy of Diwali with the local residents; he gave Diwali gifts to the children and personally handed them chocolates. During his visit, he also expressed his appreciation for the sanitation workers. CM Yogi remarked that, in today’s Ayodhya, no one can open fire on someone for chanting “Jai Shri Ram.” He further pledged that he would ensure no evil eye ever falls upon Ayodhya.
