The doors of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya opened to the general public on Tuesday, a day after the Pran Pratishtha ceremony. As lakhs of devotees are turning up, Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra chief priest Acharya Satyendra Das, said that it's unlikely as of now that everyone would have darshan.

"So much crowd has gathered here today that not everyone will be able to have darshan today and the same crowd will be visible tomorrow and for the next few days," Satyendra Das was quoted as saying by ANI.

"After the pran pratishtha ceremony, the (Ayodhya) Nagari has turned pure. In the Treta Yug when Lord Ram came back, the Ayodhya nagari was delighted...A glimpse of the Treta Yug is visible today. So many Bhakts have come to Ayodhya now and Jai Shree Ram chants are echoing here, it seems that we have gone back to Ayodhya during the Treta Yug times," Das added.
