Till now the priests were seen in saffron clothes in the sanctum sanctorum. They used to wear saffron turban, saffron kurta and dhoti. But now the priests have started wearing yellow (Pitambari) dhoti along with kurta and turban of the same color.

According to temple officials, the new dress code has come into effect from July 1. New priests are trained to wear a yellow turban. The 'chaubandi' kurta has no buttons and thread is used to tie it. A yellow 'dhoti', a piece of cotton cloth, is tied around the waist and covers the legs up to the ankles.

Each team of these priests serves in a five-hour shift between 3.30 am and 11 am. The priests have also been banned from carrying mobile phones in the temple.

It is worth noting that yellow colour has special importance in Indian religion. Yellow and saffron colour is used in auspicious works. In such a situation, the priests of Ram temple will also be seen in yellow clothes. The priests have also been given special training for this new dress code.
