Ayodhya. A grand temple of Ramlala is being built at the site of Ram Janmabhoomi in Ayodhya. Now preparations are being made to build temples of other great personalities associated with Lord Rama here. In the meeting of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust held on Sunday, it was decided that apart from the main temple in the Ram Janmabhoomi complex, now the temples of Maharishi Valmiki, Maharishi Vashistha, Maharishi Vishwamitra, Maharishi Agastya, Mata Shabari, Nishadraj and Jatayu will also be built. It was decided in the meeting of the trust that on the day of Makar Sankranti on January 14, 2024, Ram Lalla would be made to sit in the sanctum sanctorum. The trust has now increased the budget from 400 crores to 1800 crores to build new temples.
After the meeting of the trust, General Secretary Champat Rai told the media that the work of building a grand temple of Ramlala is going on fast. After making the foundation and plinth, now the main structure of the temple is being built. The temple is being built with pink stone. Carved white marble will be installed inside it. The design of the temple has been changed. Because of this, it will take time for it to be fully formed. Nevertheless, a target has been set by the trust to complete the sanctum sanctorum and the Natyamandap by December 2023. Accordingly the work is going on. After increasing the budget, there will be no problem in building new temples. With the construction of the temple of the great people of Ramayana period, the visitors here will feel a different happiness.
Please tell that the foundation stone of Ramlala’s temple was laid by PM Narendra Modi. It was only after this that L&T and Tata along with other private companies were given the responsibility of building the temple. Stones are being brought from Rajasthan and UP for the temple and they are being carved. The stone carving work is going on day and night. The architect of the temple is the famous Sompura family of Gujarat.
