«God has blessed my business and my family. I had pledged to prepare 1 kg of laddoo for each day till I am alive,» Nagabhushanam Reddy told ANI.
«I have brought a food certificate as well. These laddus can last one month.
25 men prepared the laddoos for 3 days,» he added.
The lock was made two years ago by an elderly couple, Satya Prakash Sharma and his wife Rukmini Sharma, who were residents of Norangabad, Aligarh. Satya Prakash Sharma passed away recently. His wish was that this lock should be gifted to Ayodhya Ram Mandir.
After worshipping as per the rituals, Mahamandaleshwar Annapurna Bharti Puri, a resident of Norangabad, Aligarh, left for Ayodhya with the lock on Friday.
