He said that when the redevelopment work of Mata Janaki in Punaura Dham is done in a grand manner, then the devotees who visit the Ram temple in Ayodhya will come to Punaura Dham in large numbers and visit Mata Janaki. The devotees who visit Mata Janaki will also go to Ayodhya.
Let us tell you that with the connectivity between Punaura Dham and Ayodhya, it will become easier for the devotees to have darshan of both Lord Ram and Mata Janaki.
He directed NHAI officials to expedite the construction of the proposed Ram Janaki Path so that direct connectivity can be established with Sitamarhi.

Keeping in mind the Jal-Jeevan-Hariyali Abhiyan, this temple premises will look green and beautiful due to the availability of greenery and water in the premises.
