Ram Mandir Anniversary 2025: Ayodhya, the revered birthplace of Lord Rama, is gearing up to celebrate a significant milestone. Last year, the Ram Mandir temple was completed and it has become a major pilgrimage site. This year, devotees are eagerly anticipating the first anniversary of the Ram Lalla's Pran Pratishtha ceremony, which is taking place on Saturday, 11 January 2025. The ceremony marks a significant event in the temple's history and devotees are expected to flock to Ayodhya to participate in the celebrations and offer their prayers.

The ceremony was held last year on 22 January 2024. However, this year's anniversary celebrations have been scheduled for 11 January 2025. Let us know why the Pran Pratishtha anniversary of Shri Ram Lalla is being celebrated earlier this year in line with the Hindu Panchang below:

Ram Mandir Anniversary 2025: Why First Pran Pratishtha Anniversary Of Ram Lalla Is On January 11th And Not 22nd? 

As adherents of the Hindu Vedic Sanatan culture, Hindus follow the traditional calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar. Consequently, this year, Paush Shukla Dwadashi falls on 11 January 2025. Therefore, the first anniversary of Lord Rama's Pran Pratishtha ceremony will be observed on this auspicious day. This year's celebration is particularly significant, as it coincides with ten auspicious yogas. By worshipping Lord Rama on this day, devotees can have their deepest desires fulfilled. Devotees can perform puja at their convenience, seeking the blessings of Lord Ram Lalla.
