The teams will include volunteers from the temple movement. The teams will hold meetings at 250 locations to appeal to more and more people to join the event, Amar Ujala reported.

The second phase will commence on 1 January, focusing on the 'home-to-home contact' plan. In this phase, a picture of Lord Ram's idol, worshipped rice (akshat) and a leaflet will be distributed to 10 crore families for worship. Through this, people will be appealed to celebrate the event by lighting diyas (lamps).

The third phase is scheduled for 22 January. On that day, a festive atmosphere will be created nationwide, with household observances. The fourth phase aims to arrange travel for devotees from across the country to have a glimpse of Lord Ram.
