As the New Year unfolds, the spiritual cities of Ayodhya, Varanasi, and Mathura are witnessing a surge in the number of devotees. Enhanced security measures and detailed crowd management plans have been implemented to manage the influx at these iconic religious destinations.
In Ayodhya, the newly consecrated Ram temple is attracting thousands seeking blessings from Lord Ram. Hotel accommodations in the area are fully booked through January 15, and temple trust has extended 'darshan' hours to manage crowds.
Varanasi expects an unprecedented number of visitors, prompting the Kashi Vishwanath Temple to limit 'sparsh (touch) darshan' to control overcrowding. Meanwhile, in Mathura, authorities focus on safety with a strict one-way system for temple visits and enhanced security presence.
