As the preparations are in full swing before the grand consecration ceremony of Ram Temple in Ayodhya on January 22, the city has also been witnessing the renaming of important places. Yesterday, the Uttar Pradesh government changed the name of Ayodhya railway station, and now the upcoming international airport will be named ‘Maharishi Valmiki International Airport Ayodhya Dham’, reported news agency ANI, citing sources on Thursday.
Ayodhya, one of the holiest cities in India and the state of Uttar Pradesh, is all set to get its first international airport, which would further help in promoting the pilgrimage site and give a boost to tourism in the state.
