Tripura Chief Minister Dr. Manik Saha conveyed thanks to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday for arranging special trains for the people of Tripura travelling to Ayodhya.
Dr. Saha expressed his gratitude after flagging off another Aastha Special train from Agartala Railway Station for pilgrims to have Darshan of Lord Ram in Ayodhya. He also interacted with some of the pilgrims on board.
“For Ayodhya, three trains have departed from Tripura so far. I will pray to Lord Ram for their safe and happy journey. We all know Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Ram Mandir last month, a moment awaited for 500 years. The pran pratishtha of Ram Lalla took place, and on January 22nd, we witnessed PM Modi’s participation in the ceremony. Many people, including those from outside India, attended. A few days ago, around 400 pilgrims from Tripura went to Ayodhya, and some from Dharmanagar as well. Cabinet ministers will also visit in the first week of March,” he said.
Expressing gratitude to PM Modi for facilitating the special trains, Dr. Saha said, “This is the third time people have travelled to Ayodhya. We came here to flag off the train. I have urged the pilgrims to pray for the well-being of the state and its people to Ram Lalla. They are very happy to go for the darshan of Ram Lalla, and this has been made possible by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.”
During the program, BJP state president Rajib Bhattachary and MLAs Kishor Barman and Tofajjal Hossain were present.
