'Overjoyed to be here': Isha Ambani at Ayodhya's Ram Temple

Ayodhya/IBNS: Reliance retail business head Isha Ambani arrived at the Ram Temple in Uttar Pradesh's Ayodhya along with her husband Anand Piramal on Monday.

"Today is one of the most sacred days for us and we are just overjoyed to be here," Isha told ANI.

From celebrities to politicians and seers, Ayodhya is currently overwhelmed by people from far and wide places who hope to witness a watershed religious event that will mark the course of the nation in the coming months. Many of them arrived in private jets for the ceremony.

A majority of Hindus claimed that the site was the birthplace of Lord Ram before Muslim Mughals razed a temple at the spot to build the Babri Masjid.

In a landmark verdict in 2019, the Supreme Court handed over the land to the Hindu community and ordered to allot a separate plot to Muslims.

The temple site remained an issue of bitter contest between Hindus and Muslims with both the religious factions laying claim to it for nearly seven decades.

It also witnessed violence in 1992 when a mob destroyed a 16th-century mosque which stood at the site, which was built over a Hindu temple according to the court's final verdict.
