The trust formed to build a Ram temple at Ayodhya has promised to make it a magnificent one. Read more for details
Bengaluru: It will be a feast for the eyes of devotees of Lord Sri Ram as the temple at Ayodhya will indeed be a grand one!
It is to be noted that the temple will remain the same as the one proposed by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad, but a few more newer ideas will be incorporated to make the structure phenomenal!
This was revealed by none other than Mahant Nritya Gopal Das, the newly-appointed Chairman of the Ram Mandir Trust.
Details of the structure:
A popular website quoted that, as per the proposed model of Gujarat architect Chandrakant Sompura, the Ram Mandir, to be built on 2.75 lakh cubic metre area, will be two-storeyed. With a length of 270 metres, a width of 140 feet and height will be 128 feet, the temple with 330 beams and 212 pillars on both the floors will have five doors.
Five parts of the temple:
The temple will be divided in five parts - Garbhgriha, Kauli, Rang Mandap, Nritya Mandap and Singh Dwar.
The main gate will be made of white Makrana marble. A 16.3 foot tall cell will be constructed above the Garbhgriha on which a 65.3 feet tall tower will be constructed.
The stones being carved from the last 25 years will be used in the construction of the temple along with Shri Ram stones with artwork.
But the date of construction has still not been decided. The date will be decided as the trust members meet again, probably after 15 days.
The trust has 15 members in it. It has not just religious persons, but civil members and even bureaucrats in it. The office of the trust is in Greater Kailash. The address coincidentally is that of K Parasaran, the advocate who represented Ram Lalla in the Supreme Court.
Back to the issue of the Ayodhya temple row, the top court last November awarded the disputed land of 2.77 acres to Hindus while asking the centre to form a trust to oversee all aspects related to temple construction. In line with this, PM Modi also announced the formation of a trust on the floor of the Parliament.
The top court has also asked the government to grant 5 acres of land to Muslims to build a mosque in the holy town of Ayodhya.
The construction of the temple will put an end to decades of argy-bargies over the issue and help devotees of Lord Ram realise their dreams.
