Ayodhya decked up for 'Vikas Deepotsav'; over 9 lakh earthen lamps to illuminate temple town

The temple town Ayodhya is all decked up for the 'Vikas Deepotsav' fair on Diwali. The event was inaugurated on Thursday by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, who called it an attempt to bring 'smiles to the faces of people from the lower strata of society who suffered the most during the pandemic crisis'. He said his government was a pro-commoner government and felicitated street vendors, cleanliness staff and COVID warriors on the occasion.
