Ahead of the Ram Temple consecration ceremony, a group of craftsmen from Ahmedabad has prepared a 551 Kg drum for the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. Earlier, the All India Dagbar Samaj prepared a special drum weighing 450 kilograms, which will be taken to Ayodhya before the consecration ceremony on January 22, 2024.
