Ayodhya (UP): As many as 3,800 bamboo and 36 projector lights worth over Rs 50 lakh installed on Bhakti Path and Ram Path, located in a high-security area in Ayodhya, were allegedly stolen, police said on Tuesday.

“As many as 6,400 bamboo lights were installed on Rampath and 96 projector lights were installed on Bhakti Path. Till 19 March all the lights were there but after an inspection on May 9, it was found that some lights were missing.
“Till now around 3,800 bamboo lights and 36 projector lights have been stolen by some unknown thieves,” Shekhar Sharma, a representative of the firm, said in the complaint.
According to the FIR, the firm became aware of the theft in May but filed the complaint on August 9.
