Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Friday, 7 June, unveiled a seven-foot statue of Lord Ram at Ayodhya Shodh Sansthan museum. The statue, made of a single block of rosewood and
purchased for Rs 35 lakh from Karnataka, will be on display at the museum. The statue will depict Kodamb Ram – one of the five avatars of Lord Ram. > Though the museum has over 2,500
artefacts related to Lord Ram and > his life, it did not have any piece depicting Kodamb Ram. According to the government spokesperson, the statue was purchased from the Karnataka State
Arts and Craft Emporium. Adityanath’s visit to Ayodhya was announced a day after the Shiv Sena said on Wednesday that party chief Uddhav Thackeray will visit Ayodhya next week on 15 June.
