At this time the whole country is in Rammay. Everywhere only people immersed in devotion to Ram are seen. On Friday, the devotees of Ram saw for the first time the image of Ramlala seated in the grand temple of Ayodhya. That idol was seen for the first time, that is why crores of Ram devotees are emotional. There is a festive atmosphere in Ayodhya. The devotees of Ram who arrived from all over the country seem to have lost their senses. There is only noise of Ram’s name everywhere. Somewhere bhajans are being played, someone is playing the drum, someone is dancing, someone is crying in joy. There is only one thing on everyone’s lips, Ramlala has arrived, Jai Shri Ram. Devotees of Ram have reached Ayodhya not only from their own country but from all the countries of the world. Those who could not reach, have sent all kinds of gifts for Ramlala. Only a few hours are left for Ramlala’s life to be consecrated. Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that he is strictly following the rules of Yama prescribed by the religious teachers with full devotion and devotion. Modi is currently on a complete fast, eating fruits only once a day and drinking coconut water. On Saturday, Modi visited the Sri Ranganathaswamy temple in Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, performed puja and listened to verses from the Kamban Ramayana. The priests of the temple presented valuable clothes to Modi to make Ramlala wear.
For the first time, slogans of Jai Shri Ram were raised in ‘Aap Ki Adalat’ also. The atmosphere in ‘Aap Ki Adalat’ also became festive. This time Sadhvi Ritambhara is my guest in ‘Aapki Adalat’. Sadhvi Ritambhara is one of those saints who were at the forefront of the Ayodhya movement. He is not a leader, not in politics, not in any party… But when he talked about the atrocities committed on Ram devotees during the Ayodhya movement in ‘Aap Ki Adalat’ and said that today when the life prestige of Ram Lalla is at stake. When the time has come, the pain of that time feels very light. Sadhvi Ritambhara spoke about the future. He said that Ram temple has been built, Ayodhya movement has yielded results but Kashi and Mathura are still left. Sadhvi Ritambhara said that the evidence of Ram temple in Ayodhya was hidden under the ground, hence had to protest, had to fight in the court, but in Kashi, Vishwanath’s Nandi himself is testifying, telling where Bholenath is sitting. Even in Mathura, stones are testifying, so if Kashi and Mathura are given to Hindus, then there will be no demand for those thirty thousand temples which were demolished during the Mughal period.
Sadhvi Ritambhara narrated in ‘Aapki Adalat’ the stories of the time when she was agitating for the construction of Ram temple across the country, the struggles of Ram devotees and the atrocities of Mulayam Singh’s government at that time, and many heart-wrenching stories of police torture. Reminded of events. How bullets were fired on Ram devotees, how the water of Saryu turned red, he told everything. How she is immersed in joy today and what plans Hindu organizations will have in the future, she also revealed. You will be able to watch this special show of Aapki Adalat immersed in devotion to Ram with Sadhvi Ritambhara on Saturday night at 10 pm.
People have waited for 500 years to see the grand and divine form of Ayodhya. Today, thousands of people fought hard for the life of Ram Lalla who was seen in child form. Hundreds of people sacrificed their lives. That is why everyone is eagerly waiting for the auspicious time of 22nd January. This is discussed everywhere in the country, but even today, the people who took part in the Ram Janmabhoomi movement get goosebumps when they talk about atrocities and insults. In ‘Aap Ki Adalat’, Sadhvi Ritambhara told how she was harassed, made fun of the entire Hindu society, how the police was always after her and she had to go to Jan Jagran meetings in disguise. Sadhvi Ritambhara cried remembering those Kar Sevaks on whom Mulayam Singh Yadav’s police opened fire, whose blood had turned the water of Saryu red. Everyone knows that Narendra Modi also had a very active role in this entire struggle. He was the charioteer of the chariot of Lal Krishna Advani who led the Ram Janmabhoomi movement. Just today I saw that video in which when Bihar police arrived to arrest Advani ji, Modi was overseeing the entire arrangement. Modi had then vowed that he would get Ram temple built in Ayodhya, that is why even today he gets emotional remembering the Ram temple movement. Like crores of people of the country, Modi is also eagerly waiting for the moment of his life. (Rajat Sharma)
