He also visited several temples which had some connections with Lord Ram including Kalaram Temple in Panchwati area in Nashik, Lepakshi Temple in Andhra Pradesh, and Shri Ramaswamy Temple in Thrissur.
He also visited the Ranganathaswamy Temple in Srirangam in Trichy, Sri Arulmigu Ramanathaswamy Temple in Rameswaram, and Kothandaramaswamy Temple in Dhanushkodi in Tamil Nadu.
At the start of his ritual, PM Modi said: "This is a huge responsibility. As it is also said in our scriptures, we have to awaken divine consciousness in ourselves for the Yagya and worship of God. For this, fasts and strict rules have been prescribed in the scriptures, which have to be followed before consecration. Therefore, according to the guidance I have received from some pious souls and great men of the spiritual journey and according to the ‘Yama-Niyams’ suggested by them, I am starting a special ritual of 11 days from today."
