LG’s gift to Delhi’s Ramlila committees, orders to reduce security rates
Not only in the country’s capital delhi, but with the arrival of navratri across the country, the entire
atmosphere among the people becomes devotional. From children to the elderly, the enthusiasm to see Ramlila
staged increases. The joy of Ramlila and the fair organized there, which is staged from evening till late night, is
also seen among children, women and elderly people. Everyone remains engaged in worshiping Mother Durga
with full devotion.
On the other hand, due to rising inflation, the committees that have been staging Ramlila on the occasion of
Navratri for years in different areas of delhi have started avoiding organizing Ramlila and fairs. The biggest
reason for organizing Ramlila is security and the expense of organizing the event in DDA Park. people of
Ramlila Committee have been continuously demanding from lg that the security rates should be reduced and
the rent of DDA Park should also be reduced. There should be less expenditure on staging Ramlila and also on
organizing fairs for children.
Many committees had made this demand from LG
Regarding the long standing demands of Delhi's Ramlila Committees, a delegation of delhi Religious
Federation led by delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva met delhi Lieutenant governor Vinay Kumar
Saxena and after greeting him, submitted a memorandum. The delegation included Virendra Sachdeva, State
Director of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Kulbhushan Ahuja, mp Pravesh Sahib Singh, besides Dheerajdhar
