Hyderabad: Gated communities have placed large cutouts of Lord Rama, the residential towers are festooned with colourful illumination and decorated with flowers, saffron banners and flags, ahead of the January 22 Pran Prathistha ceremony at the Ayodhya Ram Mandir.

Aparna Cyber Commune in Nallagandla, Trendset Sumanjali in Banjara Hills Road No. 5, My Home Vihanga in Nanakramguda, Aparna Towers in Kondapur are among those who are ready for the ceremony.
