PM Modi’s visit to the Lord Ram temple in Nashik just 10 days before the inauguration of the Ayodhya temple holds significance as the place is considered to have great importance in the life of Lord Ram. Among the many places mentioned in ‘Ramayana’, Panchavati occupies a special place as Lord Ram spent several years of his exile in the Dandakaranya forest. It is believed that Panchavati was a part of the Dandakaranya Forest mentioned in the epic Ramayana.
