"With these statues, our goal is to create an encyclopedia of various events of Ramayana," ANI quoted Yashwant Singh Rathore, secretary of UP's state fine arts academy, as saying.








Diwali, Diwali, traditionally known as Deepavali (Deep + Avali = a row of lights), is associated with the return of Shri Ram to Ayodhya after a break of fourteen years.
