Ayodhya: For the first time in 500 years, Holi will be celebrated vigorously at the Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya. This is the first Holi when the statue of Ram Lala is installed not in a tent but in a temple. Acharya Satyendra Das, the chief priest of Ram Janmabhoomi Temple, said, “Ram Lala stayed inside a makeshift tent for three decades and was kept away from the festivities. He will bless devotees this year after the liberation of his birthplace.”
Dr. Anil Mishra, a member of Temple Trust, said, “After the Mughal emperor Babar’s commander Mir Baqi attacked the premises in 1528, the festival of Holi was not celebrated in a pompous and traditional manner here. After five hundred years, we will celebrate the festival of colors in the court of Ram Lala. A new era has begun.” In the court of Ram Lala, natural colors and fragrant ‘Gulal’ will be used in the festival.

Mr. Anilji has wrote about celebrating Holika after 500 years in Ajodhya.
My request to Anilji and all the Hindus that, request people to celebrate Woodless Holika Pujan.
On this occasion all Hindus in our country are cutting Lakhs of Trees. these burning trees emits Carbon, Monoxide and
Particle materials., which Hazards for the Mankind.
For Holika Pyre use Cow Dunk Cakes and Cow Dung Bars. If we will use in Ajodhya
all the Hindu would get message of SAVING ENVIPOONMNET IS SAVING DHARMA.
Hope you will also propagate this
Prashant Hartalkar Divine message.
