Maharashtra Cabinet Minister Mangal Prabhat Lodha on Tuesday said Mumbai civic schools will organise competitions to showcase the importance of Lord Ram to students between January 10 and 17 ahead of the Ram temple consecration ceremony in Ayodhya.
Competitions on writing essays, poetry, and painting will be held under ‘Maryada Purushottam Prabhu Shriram Jeevan Charitra Spardha’, said Lodha.
“The upcoming consecration of Lord Ram’s temple in Ayodhya is a historic moment for our country.
“This competition is being organised with the objective that the new generation knows about Lord Ram and Ramrajya,” the guardian minister of the Mumbai suburban district said while addressing a press conference at the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) headquarters here.
