Doordarshan shared the same in a post on X, formerly Twitter. Doordarshan said morning aarti Offered to Ram Lalla will be telecast live on DD National from 6:30 AM every morning. The national broadcaster said the decision to telecast the morning aarti live every day was taken to unite Lord Ram’s devotees, especially after the grand opening of the temple less than two months ago and not everyone being able to visit the temple in person. Aarti will also be streamed simultaneously on DD’s YouTube channel.
Secondly, this decision was made because the Trust currently does not have the logistical arrangements for live streaming. Therefore, the DD will send a two-three man crew in the temple area to cover the daily ritual.

First DD will air the ‘Mangala aarti’ for a few months and then the Ram Temple Trust will take a call on how to take it forward.
