The temple town of Ayodhya was buzzing with activities on Sunday as devotees flocked to various temples, a day after the Supreme Court gave its landmark judgement ending the decades-old Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid dispute.
The areas near Hanumangarhi and Naya Ghat were busy from the morning itself, as people from different walks of life arrived here to pay obeisance to Lord Ram and his ardent devotee Hanuman.
The relief that was prevalent in the temple city the previous day seems to have transformed into a sense of joy.
People in the Rikabganj area of the city and other parts could be seen going through newspapers to understand the nuances of the Supreme Court judgement, and also ascertain, what people in other parts of the country feel about the Ayodhya verdict.
Sandeep Singh, who works as a manager at a hotel in Ayodhya, said, "It was a rare Sunday for the Ayodhyawaasis (residents of Ayodhya) as Sun God and son of Wind God (Lord Hanuman) smiled profusely and generously on them. This Sunday holds special significance for us, as we woke up to a new and transformed Sunday, with a feeling of relief that the lingering issue of Ayodhya dispute has been resolved once and for all."
