Today Ayodhya is being discussed all over the world. On 22 January, the idol of Ram Lala is consecrated in the Ram temple. But do you know how many stages the legal battle for Ram Temple, which started in 1885, has gone through? Let us tell you today in this article how things used to happen in this temple when the issue of Ram Temple was in the court. Apart from this, we will also tell you how in those days, permission had to be taken from the Supreme Court for every small thing. Even Ram Lalla’s clothes could not be changed daily.
Story from platform to temple
According to a BBC report, when the first war of independence began in 1857 and the Nawabi rule ended, some Hindus built a platform on the outside of the mosque and started worshiping there. However, the first written complaint about this matter was made on 30 November 1858 by Maulvi Mohammad Asghar, an employee of the Babri Masjid.
But this matter reached the court for the first time on 9 January 1885. In fact, Mahant Raghbar Das of Nirmohi Akhara had filed a case in the civil court against the Government of India and Mohammad Asghar, claiming the platform to be the birthplace of Ram. This fight continued for more than a hundred years and today, due to the decision of the Supreme Court, a grand Ram temple is being constructed in Ayodhya. However, a lot happened in this case during this period.
Court’s permission on matters
Mahant of Ram Mandir Satyendra Das giving interview to Amar Ujala Ram Mandir And has told about the stories related to Ram Lala of those days when the Janmabhoomi case was in the court. Recalling those days, Mahant Satyendra Das says that when Bhoj-Raag was asked for Ram Lala, the administration did not give us that much. Even we used to get clothes for Ram Lalla only on Ram Navami.
Satyendra Das says that the worst thing we felt was when the tarpaulin over the temple got torn in the rain and we had to take permission from the Supreme Court to get it replaced. Many times it happened that rain water would enter inside and even Ramlala’s clothes would get wet. But this will not happen now. Now there will be every kind of facility in the temple. Many priests will be engaged in the service of Ramlala. Even for this, training of 20 to 25 new priests has been started.
