The 85-year-old vowed that she would break her silence the day a grand Ram temple was built on the sacred soil of Ayodhya.
In a small corner of Jharkhand's Dhanbad, amidst the coal mines and bustling city life, resides a woman whose life has been intertwined with a promise she made three decades ago. Saraswati Devi, fondly known as 'Mauni Mata,' has spent over 30 years observing a self-imposed vow of silence, a solemn oath she undertook on the day the Babri Masjid was demolished in Ayodhya in 1992.
The 85-year-old vowed that she would break her silence the day a grand Ram temple was built on the sacred soil of Ayodhya. Her vow of silence is set to conclude on January 22, the auspicious day of the Ram temple's consecration.
As Saraswati Devi prepares to break her silence, the first words that will escape her lips are anticipated with bated breath. Known as 'Mauni Mata', Saraswati Devi's journey has been one of sacrifice and dedication. A mother of eight, including four daughters, she embraced a life devoted to Lord Ram following the demise of her husband Devkinandan Agarwal in 1986.
