Choubey told reporters here that the artwork was made by a group of artists from Bihar during the last week. He was part of the ‘Shri Ram Lalla Avirbhav Rath Yatra’ that started from Bihar.
To bring the otherworldly artwork to life, the diyas were lit by devotees who thronged Ayodhya to witness the majestic portrait.
The dazzling artwork displayed at Saket College ground in Ayodhya has been made by artists working under the aegis of the Shri Ramjanmabhoomi Nyas. Choubey is a founder of the trust.

“Shri Ram had returned after 14 years of exile and in Ayodhya, an image of Lord Ram in his ‘parakrami roop’ (state of valour) had been made. This is to give the message to the youth of new India that they should be ‘parakrami’ (valourous),” the minister said.
The Ram temple being built in Ayodhya has also been depicted in it.
“The image of Lord Ram is in the form which he had assumed before killing demoness Tadka. It shows him in a grand way… And, now Ram Lalla will assume his seat in a grand temple on January 22,” Choubey added.
Ram Mandir consecration
Vedic rituals for the Pran-Pratishtha (consecration) ceremony of Ram Lalla (infant Lord Ram) in Ayodhya will begin on January 16, a week before the main ceremony.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to attend the consecration ceremony at the Ram Temple on January 22. The event has garnered significant attention, with several VVIP guests from India and abroad receiving invitations to participate in the auspicious occasion in Ayodhya.
More than 60,00 people are expected to attend the consecration ceremony.
