I have been fortunate that I got a chance to serve in Ayodhya during my first posting in the army, the golden memories of which are still alive in my mind. After waiting for 500 years, the grand and divine Ayodhya Dham at present is an indicator of efforts to preserve the unique heritage of India.” It is noteworthy that during his service in the army, the Governor served in Ayodhya (then Faizabad) in his first posting, due to which he has a deep attachment to Ayodhya.
