Uttar Pradesh: Champat Rai, general secretary of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, revealed that according to the revised estimation, over Rs 1800 crore will be spent on the construction of the much-awaited Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh.
The Trust also finalised its rules and regulations in the meeting that was presided over by Nripendra Misra, chairman of the Ram temple construction committee. “After several revisions, we have reached this estimate. Even this might go up,” Rai said about the construction cost, as per IANS reports.
The Trust has also decided to use white marble in the construction of the idol of Lord Ram. Idols of several other deities of the Ramayan era will also come up at the Ram temple.
“Rules and regulations of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust have been finalised. We have been working on it for the past several months,” Champat Rai said.
The construction of the temple is expected to be completed by December 2023 and Lord Ram is expected to be seated in the sanctum sanctorum by the Makar Sankranti festival in January 2024, Rai said.
