Prime Minister’s Ayodhya Visit
“The Prime Minister is expected to reach Ayodhya airport somewhere around 10.45 am. After landing at the airport, he will move straight to Ayodhya railway station where he will inaugurate the redeveloped railway station. He will then return to the airport, inaugurate the newly-built airport and subsequently address a ‘jan sabha’ (public rally),” Divisional Commissioner of Ayodhya, Gaurav Dayal told news agency PTI. The Prime Minister will leave Ayodhya after the nearly hour-long rally, which is anticipated to draw about 1.5 lakh people, he continued.
Renovated Ram Path and Key Roads
Between the airport and the train station, PM Narendra Modi will conduct a roadshow and accept the greetings of the Ayodhya community. The administration had started work on Thursday, erecting makeshift wooden barriers on both sides of the recently renovated Ram Path and other roads that would cross his path as he made his way from the airport to the railway station. At several key spots in the temple town, large posters featuring Prime Minister Modi’s picture and a greeting to the “holy city of Ayodhya” were erected.

Ayodhya Gears Up for a Massive Influx
