Following Pran Pratishtha, the Ram Mandir Trust issued the schedule for darshan in the temple, which runs from 6:30 am to 10 pm. Between two and two and a half lakh devotees used to come to Ramlala’s court every day during those period. In contrast to before, the number of devotees is down by half. Currently, between 80,000 to a million devotees visit every day. As a result, the trust has altered the way that darshan is organized.
