Ayodhya: Dressed in a saffron robe embossed with ‘Jai Shri Ram’, 63-year-old Nemaram Prajapati blows a conch as his ‘damru’ beats announce his arrival in the “land of Lord Ram”.
Prajapati was on the Ram Path near the ornate ceremonial gateway to the Ram temple site here after completing a gruelling barefoot cycle journey from Gujarat’s Ahmedabad on Thursday.
“I have not worn a pair of shoes since 1992, my resolution was that I will do so only after a Ram temple is built in Ayodhya. And, I have reached Ayodhya cycling from Ahmedabad barefoot to pay my obeisance to Prabhu Ram,” Prajapati said.
