According to a pundit of the Chhawni, “These laddoos will be used as offing to Lord Ram by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on August 5. After that, they’ll be distributed to all the devotees who will come for the foundation laying ceremony and also sent to all major temples around the country.”

He told ANI that a bag is being prepared by the Chhawni which will contain three books on the history of Ayodhya and Ram Temple, a box of laddoos and a shawl, among other things.

Another worker at Chhawni said the preparation of the laddoos has been underway for the past 4 days and they’ll be packed and ready before the mega event.

PM Modi is scheduled to lay the foundation stone of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya on August 5, according to the president of the Sri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust.
