<p>Indian PM Modi, while speaking to the dignitaries who were invited to the Pran Pratishtha (consecration) ceremony at Ayodhya's Ram Temple, said that the moment of Ram Lalla idol's unveiling is an occasion not just of triumph but also of humility.</p>

<h2><strong>PM calls consecration ceremony a 'moment of celebration'&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p>"This is a moment of celebration as well as the moment of a reflection of Indian society's maturity. It is an occasion of not merely triumph but humility too. The history of the world is itself proof that many countries get strangled in their own history and such countries faced difficulties when they tried to solve their problems...but the way, our country untied the knots of history, is proof that our future is going to be more beautiful than our past," Modi said.</p>
