Ayodhya, Jan 18 : The main idol of Ram Lalla was brought inside the sanctum sanctorum of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya in the early hours of Thursday, Shri Ram Mandir Construction Committee chairperson Nripendra Mishra said.

The rituals will continue till January 21 and on the day of the 'Pran Pratishtha', minimum essential rituals will be conducted, according to Ram temple trust officials.
