Ayodhya: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath handed over special clothes to the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust in Lucknow for the consecration ceremony scheduled on January 22 . Further these unique clothes were created through a special effort by the Heritage Handweaving Revival Charitable Trust, based in Pune. The Trust stated that more than 12 lakh people from various backgrounds were involved in weaving and stitching the fabric. This initiative, called 'Do dhaage Shri Ram ke liye,' took place from December 10 to 22 last year.

‘Do dhaage Shri Ram ke liye’

The Heritage Handweaving Revival Charitable Trust focuses on uplifting weavers from all over India. During the program in Pune, they provided an opportunity for people from different walks of life to contribute by weaving and stitching clothes for Lord Ram. The Trust set up nine handlooms at their showroom and workshop, with an impressive daily participation of around 80,000 common people. Over the course of 13 days, a staggering 12.36 lakh individuals, including people from various castes like Brahmins and Dalits, actively participated in stitching the clothes using pure silk threads.

Anagha Ghaisas, the secretary and founder of the Trust, shared that the participants had to stitch two threads on the handlooms. She underlined about the inclusive nature of the program, where people from diverse backgrounds came together for this meaningful initiative.
