Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has announced a 24-hour non-stop recitation of the Ramcharitmanas in temples across the state's districts on Chaitra Ramnavami.

The revered text will be recited at the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi temple starting April 5 and conclude the following day.

To accommodate the influx of devotees, the Chief Minister has called for comprehensive arrangements to ensure comfort and safety, ranging from providing drinking water and canopy setups to deploying additional sanitation and police forces for crowd management. Furthermore, he has directed a strict policy against meat shops near temples and endorsed clean environment campaigns in urban and rural areas.
