In the first tweet on the thread, the Indian government wrote in the firstpost: "Sunlight Blesses Ram Lalla's Idol on Ram Navami! Every Ram Navami at noon, mirrors and lenses systems align to focus sunlight on Ram Lalla's idol's forehead. An eco-friendly spectacle with no electricity or batteries needed."

Describing the idol as a 'timeless wonder', the government said the statue was carved from a 2.5 billion-year-old black granite rock.

The special black granite was brought from Karnataka.

Giving details about the crown which the deity is wearing, the Indian government's post said: "Facts about Ram Lalla's crown or ‘mukut’ are fashioned from yellow gold, Weighs ~1.7 kilos, Adorned with 75 carats of diamonds, and the Sun at the center symbolizes the Suryavanshi logo."

"Ram Lalla's tilak boasts a central 3-carat natural diamond, surrounded by smaller diamonds totaling approximately 10 carats. Natural Burmese rubies are used to adorn the Ajana Chakra," the post said about the tilak.
