The Ram Lalla Murti refers to the idol of Lord Ram as a child (Ram Lalla), which is worshipped in the Ram Janmabhoomi temple complex in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, India. The term "Ram Lalla" means "Little Ram," and this idol specifically represents Lord Ram in his childhood form, holding great significance for Hindus. Here's a more detailed description:

Appearance:

The Ram Lalla Murti depicts Lord Ram as a young child. Typically, he is shown in his early years, often as a small, tender boy, symbolizing purity, innocence, and divine grace.
The idol is typically adorned with traditional clothes of yellow or saffron, symbolizing his connection to divine wisdom, righteousness, and strength.
Facial features of Ram Lalla are often depicted with a calm, serene expression that reflects his divine nature, even as a child. His eyes are usually gentle and expressive, embodying the essence of compassion and wisdom.
He may hold a bow (the symbol of Ram's warrior role later in life), but in this child form, he is mostly shown as playing or in an innocent posture, conveying his divine status even from an early age.

Religious and Cultural Significance:

The Ram Lalla Murti is a symbol of Lord Ram's birth and his connection to the land of Ayodhya. According to Hindu tradition, Ram was born in Ayodhya, and the Ram Janmabhoomi (the birthplace of Lord Ram) is considered one of the holiest sites for Hindus.
The idol became famous worldwide due to the Ram Janmabhoomi movement which aimed to build a temple at the site where the Ram Lalla Murti was kept, leading to both religious fervor and controversy.
The Ram Lalla idol was initially placed under a makeshift structure (a tent) and later inside a more permanent structure until the construction of the new Ram Mandir began after the court verdict in 2019 allowed the construction of a temple at the disputed site

Key Features of the Idol and Temple Complex:
- Location: The Ram Lalla idol is now housed in the Ram Mandir that is being built in Ayodhya. The temple is planned to be grand and will feature intricate carvings and artwork reflecting Ram's life and the Hindu epic, the Ramayana.
- Worship: The idol of Ram Lalla is worshipped daily, with rituals and prayers offered by priests and devotees alike.
