He further added that the main rituals of the grand event will be officiated by Varanasi priest Lakshmi Kant Dixit.
When and where to watch
India's national broadcaster Doordarshan will broadcast the live streaming of the event from 11 am today and it will be relayed in temples and public places in villages and urban areas across the country. To ensure seamless live streaming, Doordarshan has reportedly installed nearly 40 cameras at various locations in Ayodhya, including the Ram Janmabhoomi temple complex. The coverage would be available in 4K display.
The live streaming will also include visuals from other locations like Ram ki Paidi near Saryu ghat, Jatayu statue at Kuber Tila, among other locations.
"Like the G20...when we had done 4K transmission, this time also, Doordarshan will do it in 4K (broadcast technology).... The entire coverage will be live and broadcast in different languages, and on different channels. And, private channels will also get the feed via Doordarshan," Ministry of Information and Broadcasting secretary Apurva Chandra told news agency PTI.
