Minister for Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Govinda Prasad Sharma Koirala visited the Shree Ramchandra Temple, Battisputali. The Ram Navami festival is celebrated in the memory of Lord Rama, worship is performed in the temple of Lord Ramachandra.

On this day in the Tretayuga, Lord Rama was born in Ayodhya, as an incarnation of Vishnu, as the son of King Dasharatha and Queen Kaushalyavati. In the same memory, there is a tradition of bathing in holy rivers, lakes and pools, fasting, reciting the Rama Gita, reciting the different versions of the Ramayana and worshiping Lord Rama and chanting hymns throughout the night.

Born as the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu, the eldest son of King Dasharatha of Ayodhya, Shri Ram destroyed sinful and evil demons from the world after marrying Sita, daughter of King Janak of Mithila. Today, he is still remembered as the ideal king.

It is mentioned in the scriptures, including the Ramayana, that, by fasting, worshiping and adoring Shri Ram on the day of Ram Navami, one can find happiness, peace and prosperity in this world. It is mentioned in the religious scriptures that the celebration of Ram Navami was started in his memory as he inspired the human race to follow the path of truth by accepting the strict orders of his father.

As Rama ruled in Ayodhya as an ideal man who respected all, his reign is still remembered as Ram Rajya. Lord Vishnu was born in the human world as Rama to protect the righteousness by putting an end to evil. The festival of Ram Navami is celebrated with the desire to have the same qualities as Ram.
