VIP darshan has been banned in Ram Mandir after 9 pm. Also, common devotees will be able to enter Ram Mandir only till 9:15 pm. This arrangement has been implemented. Only those devotees will be able to go after 9:15 pm who have a pass for Shayan Aarti.
The timetable for darshan in Ram Mandir from 6:30 am to 10 pm was released by the Ram Mandir Trust after Pran Pratishtha. During that time, two to two and a half lakh devotees used to visit Ramlala’s court daily. Now the number of devotees has halved as compared to earlier. Now 80 thousand to one lakh devotees are visiting daily. Therefore, some changes have been made in the arrangement of darshan by the trust. However, the trust has not made it public yet.
Ram Mandir’s chief priest Satyendra Das said that the process of putting Ramlala to sleep starts at 9:15 pm. Therefore, common devotees are being allowed entry only till 9:15 pm. All the devotees who are present in the premises till 9:15 pm are allowed darshan. Also, VIP devotees can go through Rang Mahal barrier only till 9 o’clock. After this, only those who have a pass for Shayan Aarti are allowed entry. After the Shayan Aarti at 10 pm, Ramlala is put to rest.
