    What's the story

    While Prime Minister Narendra Modi performed the Pran Prathishtha rituals for Ayodhya's Ram Mandir, Mexico got its first Ram temple on Sunday (local time).

    The temple was inaugurated after a consecration ceremony was performed by a priest from the United States (US).

    The idols were brought from India, reports said.
