New Delhi, April 2 Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani on Thursday visited the magnificent Ram Temple in Ayodhya, along with his family. The prominent industrialist, delighted to visit the birthplace of Lord Ram after the temple's inauguration in 2024, offered prayers to Ram Lalla and sought blessings.
Adani’s visit to the Ram Mandir coincides with the Hanuman Jayanti celebrations -- the day marking the birth of Lord Hanuman.
Gautam Adani was accompanied by his wife, Priti Adani and son Karan Adani. The Adani family participated in the holy rituals at the temple and offered prayers.
Speaking to the media about Ram Lalla 'darshan', Gautam Adani said, "My family and I had the opportunity to visit the magnificent Shri Ram Mandir. It is a deeply emotional and proud moment for us. This temple is not just a centre of faith, but also a symbol of India’s culture, unity, and self-confidence."
The billionaire businessman also underlined Adani Foundation’s efforts to uphold the nation’s rich cultural traditions and heritage in an era dominated by Artificial Intelligence (AI).
He stated, "I pray that Lord Shri Ram’s blessings remain upon all of us and that our country continues to progress on the path of development. Today, I also had the opportunity to visit the Gurukul and spend some time with the children. In today’s era, Gurukuls play a very important role in keeping our culture alive. Through the Adani Foundation, efforts are being made to preserve and promote this cultural heritage. We will provide all necessary support to help maintain and pass on our traditions in the AI era."
Earlier, the Adani Group Chairman arrived in the city at Maharishi Valmiki International Airport -- the recently inaugurated terminal linking the holy town to the world.
He was welcomed to the mammoth temple complex by senior officials of Sri Ram Janambhoomi Teerth Kshetra. Trust’s General Secretary Champat Rai also took him on a detour of the temple to showcase its magnificence, splendour and timeless appeal.
Some reports suggested that the Adani Group chairman will attend the hoisting of a special Hanuman flag at the temple complex on the occasion of Hanuman Jayanti.
Hanuman Jayanti, also known as Hanuman Janmotsav, marks the birth of Lord Hanuman ('Pavan Putra' - Son of the Wind God). On this day, devotees pray to Lord Hanuman -- the symbol of unwavering loyalty to Lord Ram and seek blessings.
