PM Modi 'Your letter helped me to deal with these feelings': PM Modi writes to Droupadi Murmu on Ayodhya visit
New Delhi/IBNS: Prime Minister Narendra Modi Tuesday thanked President Droupadi Murmu for her letter written to him ahead of the Ram Temple consecration ceremony and said it helped him "to deal with these feelings and to come to terms with them."
PM Modi said that he "was in a different state of mind" when he received the President's letter: "Your letter helped me to deal with these feelings and to come to terms with them."
The mantra of 'sabka saath, sabka vikas, sabka vishwas' is inspired by Lord Ram, wrote Modi in reponse to President Murmu's letter to him. "The results of this mantra are visible everywhere today.
"In the last decade, the country has succeeded in bringing 25 crore people out of poverty," he wrote.
"Lord Ram has given the inspiration of sabka saath, sabka saath, sabka vishwas aur sabka prayas (everyone's support, everyone's development, everyone's faith and everyone's effort)," he said. "The ideals of Lord Ram give us constant energy to work for welfare and empowerment of poor".
Murmu had written a two-page letter to the Prime Minister on the eve of the inauguration of the grand Ram temple in Ayodhya and called the nationwide celebratory atmosphere around the event an "uninhibited expression of the eternal soul of India".
Describing his experience at the newly-built Ram Temple, he said that he "witnessed the most unforgettable moments of my life in Ayodhya Dham". "I have returned from there with an Ayodhya in my heart".
"Lord Ram has arrived," the Prime Minister said after leading the grand consecration ceremony at the Ram Temple in the presence of hundreds of seers and renowned personalities from the world of business, sports, and Bollywood stars along with millions nationwide.

The Prime Minister went through rituals spanning eleven days in the run-up to the temple ceremony which Murmu highlighted in her letter. It is not only a sacred ritual but also a supreme spiritual act of sacrifice and submission to Lord Ram, she said.
"You spoke about my 11-day fasting rituals and the Yama-Niyams related to it. Our country has been witness to countless people who made many resolutions for centuries so that Ram Lalla could return to his birthplace," he said in response to Murmu's letter.
