Bhumi Pujan took place on 22 January in Harohali village of Karnataka from where a stone was taken out for the statue of Ramlala.
The land of Harohali village of Mysuru in Karnataka from which a stone was taken out for the statue of Ramlala, is now being built there. Bhumi Pujan was performed here on January 22, 2025 on completion of one year of Pran Pratishtha in Ayodhya.
This land belongs to the local farmer Ramdas. Pratap Simha, the then BJP MP of Mysuru, promised to build a temple on Ramdas’ land. For this, Ramdas also donated about 4500 square feet out of his two and a half acres of ancestral land.
Bhaskar had made a report from Harohali on December 2, 2024, in which we had told that Srinivas Natraj, who took the stone for Ramlala, has not received wages even after about 10 months. They are very angry with this. The BJP MP had also promised to take him to Ayodhya, but that too was not fulfilled. Mysuru MPs also changed in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Finally, angry Ramdas and Srinivas had to start the initiative to build the temple on their own. Local JDS MLA GT Deve Gowda has also come forward in this campaign. On the other hand, the sculptor Arun Yogiraj, who made the idol of Ramlala in Ayodhya, has also expressed his desire to make a statue of Ramlala for this temple.
The villagers of Harohali worshiped the Krishnashila, which will make the statue of Ramlala.
The priest of the royal family performed Bhoomi Pujan Harohali is a small village, 22 km from Mysuru. Ramdas’s land is about 500 meters from the main road. Last time when Bhaskar reached there, there were big stones in the middle of the grass. These were pieces of the same Krishnashila, from which the rock was cut for the statue of Ramlala.
Former MP Pratap Simha had a small piece of stone to the place where the stone was taken out for Ramlala. There was a plan to install the sanctum sanctorum of the Ram temple and the statue of God at the same place. On January 22, Rajpurohit Prahlad Rao of the royal family of Mysuru performed Bhoomi Pujan here.
Ramdas told that Krishnashila was taken out for Ramlala in Ayodhya from this place.
MLA GT Deve Gowda offered flowers at the place of Ramlala established. There was another big rock some distance away from the place of worship, whose excavation is not yet completed. This will make a statue of Ramlala. People also revolved around this rock.

Ramdas said- Pran was also worshiped here even during prestige Regarding Bhoomi Pujan, Ramdas says, ‘My ancestors must have done very good things, due to which Ramlala made of stone from our ground was established in Ayodhya, 2500 km away. We also worshiped here at the time of Pran Pratishtha in Ayodhya because we were not called there. This is Ayodhya for us.
The then MP Pratap Simha promised that a grand Ram temple will also be built here. We waited for a year, but nothing happened. Now Srinivas and I have decided to build the temple myself. MLAs have come forward to help us. ,
Ramdas told, ‘We do not have money to build a temple. We are completely dependent on public funding to fulfill the dream of the Ram temple. MLA Deve Gowda has given 10 thousand rupees, then Bhoomi Poojan has been done. We are considering creating a trust to raise money, but how will all the MLAs decide.
‘It is not possible to go to UP, this is Ayodhya for us’ Srinivas says, ‘Preparations have started to build a Ram temple in Harohali. The people of the village are quite happy. Ayodhya is not in everyone’s reach. It is not possible for common people like us to go to Ayodhya, 2500 km away. After the Bhoomi Pujan, there is some hope in the mind that Lord Ram’s life can be presented in our village too.
‘I am taking another stone from Ramdas’s land for the statue of Ramlala. It will make a statue of Ram, Sita, Laxman, Bharata and Shatrughna. The idol of Anjaneya (Hanuman) will be installed at the entrance of the temple. I have prepared a stone for this. ‘
Srinivas showed the rock that he has prepared for the statue of Hanuman.
MLA said- will gather funds for the temple JDS MLA GT Deve Gowda, who arrived at Bhumi Pujan, said, ‘This place of Harohali is very sacred for all of us. We consider it to be Ayodhya of the south. Whatever help will be provided to build a Ram temple here, we will provide it, whether it is from the fund of the state government or the MLA fund.

Rajpurohit Prahlad Rao said that all of us of Karnataka are very happy that Ramlala has been made from Krishnashila, who came out of a village in our state, in Ayodhya. Now we wish that Harohali should be made Ayodhya of the south and a grand temple of Lord Rama should be built here.
Yogiraj said- Making a statue of Ramlala is my duty Bhaskar spoke to the sculptor Arun Yogiraj in Mysuru at his workshop center. On the question of making another statue of Ramlala, he said, ‘I was ready to make the statue earlier and I am still ready today. I do not have any big demand for this. According to the size of the idol, whatever fees the people of the village give me, it will be approved to me.
On the question of not being involved in Bhoomi Pujan, Yogiraj said, ‘I had no information about that program. Nor was I called. If I had known, I would definitely go there. Harohali is the mother of the statue of Ramlala installed in Ayodhya. It is my duty to make the statue there.
Pratap Simha said- I can drop the mosque, no power to build a temple Bhaskar spoke to former BJP MP Pratap Simha from Mysuru over the phone. He said, ‘I am no longer an MP. The people of the village themselves are building temples. I have no role in this. If the mosque is to be demolished, then tell me, I can do it. I now have no power to build the temple.
Bhaskar also spoke to Pratap Simha in December 2024. Then he had said, ‘We are planning to build a temple on Ramdas’ land as a memorable temple. We also placed a piece of stone there, from where the rock was excavated for Ayodhya.

BJP MLA said- will demand funds from public to build temple However, BJP MLA from Krishnaraj assembly constituency, TS Srivatsa supported the initiative of JDS MLA GT Deve Gowda to build a Ram temple in Harohali. He said, ‘Deve Gowda has done a big job by doing Bhoomi Pujan. I assure on behalf of my party that the dream of building a grand Ram temple on Ramdas’s land will definitely be fulfilled. If there is a need for the fund, we will also knock the door of the public.
Bhaskar also spoke to Shankaracharya Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati and Ram Mandir Trust in Ayodhya on this issue. Read what he said-
Shankaracharya said- People remember promises, leaders should avoid announcements Among the four dhams, Shankaracharya Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati of Badrinath said, ‘Devotees of Rama build temples where they are. Leaders declare the atmosphere. Could not complete later. The leaders of every party keep making announcements, the BJP is not untouched by this. However, the leaders should avoid the announcement. The public remembers everything. She also takes accounts later.

Members of Ram Mandir Trust said- We cannot help in funding Dr. Anil Mishra, a member of the Ram Mandir Trust, said that Ram devotees are building temples in the whole country with their reverence. Leaders in many states have also announced to build temples. People have their own reverence to build a temple. The Ram Mandir Trust cannot help anything in this. Every penny from devotees for Ayodhya will be spent on the temple of Ramlala in Ayodhya.
