Ayodhya: Ram temple in Ayodhya will open for worship for devotees by the end of 2023.
Trust officials overseeing the project said the construction of the entire 70-acre complex would be completed by the end of 2025.
IANS quoted the general secretary of the trust Champat Rai, “By the end of 2023, the sanctum sanctorum of the Ram temple will be opened for devotees to worship Ram Lalla.”
The announcement was made after a two-day meeting of the 15-member Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust with engineers and architects. Trust head Nripendra Mishra presided over the meeting.
The foundation stone of the temple was laid by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a grand ceremony on August 5 last year, but the work had to be stopped in January after water was found under the proposed temple site.
At present, engineers are working on the foundation of the temple and it is likely to be completed by September 15.
The second phase of the work is likely to start in November around Diwali.
