Ram temple: Modi winds up spiritual sojourn

On the last leg of his three-day visit to the state, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday visited Arichal Munai and the Kothandaramar Temple in Ramanathapuram district on Sunday. During his two-day visit to Ramanathapuram, the Prime Minister offered prayers at the Ramanathaswamy Temple on Saturday and stayed at the Ramakrishna Mutt.

Around 9 am on Sunday, he visited Arichal Munai and performed a special pooja near the shore. Modi also indulged in breathing exercises and later viewed the Ram Setu with a telescope. He then headed to the Kothandaramar Temple around 11 am. Kothandaramar translates to Lord Ram with a bow, and it is believed that Vibhishana first met Lord Ram and sought refuge here. It is also believed that Lord Ram conducted the coronation of Vibhishana near the temple.
