Arun Govil Launches ‘Ghar-Ghar Ramayan’ Campaign to Revive Values of Ramayan

Arun Govil, the renowned actor who portrayed Lord Ram in the iconic television series Ramayan, has launched the ‘Ghar-Ghar Ramayan’ campaign to promote the teachings of the Ramayan and revive family and social values across India. The campaign was announced in a press conference held at his office in Meerut, where Govil addressed electronic and print media.
In his address, Govil emphasized the decline in relationships in today’s world. He pointed out that familial, social, and even neighborhood bonds were weakening, and even basic human interaction, like asking for directions on the street, had changed for the worse. He expressed concern over the erosion of values in society, and after much thought, he found the solution in the Ramayan, a sacred text known to many but often overlooked.
Govil explained that the Ramayan offers timeless teachings about relationships and ethics, even among adversaries, as exemplified when Ravana disguised himself as a Brahmin to conduct a yajna for Lord Ram, despite the ongoing war. This incident made Govil realize the importance of bringing the message of the Ramayan to every home. He then reached out to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, requesting his support for this noble initiative.

Govil shared that when he met the Prime Minister during a Parliament session, Modi acknowledged the campaign and promised to send a message to the nation. Govil’s efforts culminated on the auspicious day of Ram Lala’s Pran Pratishtha, when he presented a copy of the Ramayan to Lord Ram. On the 15th of the month, Modi’s message arrived, further boosting the campaign.

The ‘Ghar-Ghar Ramayan’ initiative is set to spread the timeless wisdom of the Ramayan, aiming to restore values of compassion, unity, and moral integrity in society.
