New Delhi, June 7, 2026
Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah will inaugurate the newly constructed ‘Sabareesam’ building at the Ayyappa Temple complex in R K Puram, New Delhi, on Sunday.
The inauguration ceremony is scheduled to begin at 5:30 p.m., during which HM Shah will formally dedicate the building to devotees and the temple community.
The new facility has been developed within the temple premises to expand infrastructure and strengthen the temple’s religious, cultural, and social activities.
Temple authorities believe that the Sabareesam building will serve as an important centre for spiritual gatherings, community events, charitable initiatives and various devotional programmes organised throughout the year.
Confirming the event, the Office of the Union Home Minister announced on social media platform X: “UHM Shri Amit Shah Ji will inaugurate the newly constructed ‘SABAREESAM’ building at the Ayyappa Temple complex in New Delhi tomorrow.”
The Ayyappa Temple in R K Puram is regarded as one of the most prominent Lord Ayyappa shrines in North India. Established in 1980, the temple is known for its traditional Kerala-style architecture and attracts devotees from Delhi and neighbouring states. Over the years, it has emerged as an important spiritual and cultural centre for the Malayali community and devotees of Lord Ayyappa in the national capital.
The temple regularly hosts religious ceremonies, bhajans, special pujas, cultural programmes, and community service activities. Its role extends beyond worship, with various initiatives aimed at promoting social welfare and community engagement among devotees.
The inauguration of the Sabareesam building is expected to further enhance facilities within the temple complex and provide additional space for religious, cultural and social activities. Temple authorities hope the new infrastructure will help accommodate growing participation in events and support the temple’s expanding community outreach efforts.
The event is expected to draw devotees and members of the temple community, marking another milestone in the development of one of Delhi’s most prominent Ayyappa temples.(Agency)
