After the consecration of Shri Ram, Ayodhya is now becoming a center not only for religious faith but also for economic and cultural development. The increasing number of devotees has not only enhanced the importance of the temple but has also given new momentum to the local economy.
The Uttar Pradesh government is working to develop Ayodhya according to international standards. Road, rail, and air connectivity are being strengthened so that devotees coming from India and abroad do not face any inconvenience. Along with this, hotel, transportation, and tourism facilities are also being continuously expanded.
