350 Petromax are used in a month
The tank of Petromax used in Ramlila is of 2 liters and after filling 2 liters of diesel and turpentine in it, it burns for 12 hours. Due to mixing of turpentine in diesel, smoke also remains negligible. Which does not cause any harm to the environment. Riyazuddin, who prepared it, told that this leela takes place in the light of this Petromax for 30 days. Every day 10 to 14 Petromax are used in Leela.
Even today the entire Ramlila is organized with 350 Petromax.
Let us now know what happened in Ramlila of Ramnagar.
When Bharat went to meet Shri Ram from the ashram of Bhardwaj Muni, Indra got scared. He asked Brihaspati to take some measures so that Bharat could not meet Ram. On the other hand, Bharat, moving forward with his Chaturangini army, reached the banks of the river inquiring about Ram. Seeing Bharat coming with a huge Chaturangini army, Lakshman becomes suspicious. Then there is a voice from the sky and one has to repent by acting in a hurry without thinking. After listening to the voice from the sky, Ram explains to Lakshman.
Bharat met Lord Ram, started cheering.
On the orders of Bharat Guru, Shatrughan and Nishad proceeded to meet Ram along with Raj and on seeing Shri Ram, they fell on the ground saying Pahin Nath Pahin Gosai. Seeing this, Ram ran barefoot and picked up Bharat and hugged him. Seeing the meeting of the four brothers in Chitrakoot, the eyes of Leela lovers brim with tears. The rain that fell before the start of the Leela not only became a hindrance in starting the Leela on time but also came in the way of carrying out a tradition. The Chaturangini Sena salute scheduled for Saturday could not take place.
