The ground floor of the three-storey Ram Temple in Ayodhya is in its final stages, and the work on ancillary structures is being carried out vigorously to ensure their completion by October of this year.

A statement revealed that the progress of the construction on the ground floor of the Ram Temple was recently evaluated by senior members of the trust, including Nripendra Misra, the chairman of the construction committee.

During the review of the construction work, engineering teams from Larsen & Toubro and Tata Consulting Engineers, along with representatives of Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, were present.

The statement highlighted that the Shri Ram Temple in Ayodhya is now entering the final phase of ground floor construction, with the work on infrastructure buildings progressing rapidly and set to be completed by October 2023.

The construction progress is closely monitored on a daily basis by senior officials, who promptly address any issues that arise.

The committee also mentioned that the placement of Rajasthan's Bansi Paharpur stone on the three-storey temple is currently underway, following the completion of the temple foundation, raft, and plinth.

In addition to the sanctum sanctorum, the temple comprises five mandaps: Gudh Mandap, Rang Mandap, Nritya Mandap, Prathana Mandap, and Kirtan Mandap.

As per the statement, the dome sizes of these five mandaps range from 34 feet in width and 32 feet in length, with heights varying from 69 feet to 111 feet from the courtyard.

The dimensions of the entire temple are 380 feet in length, 250 feet in width, and 161 feet in height from the courtyard.

The sanctum sanctorum has been artistically adorned with Makrana marble pillars, beams, ceiling, and wall cladding. A total of 392 pillars have been structurally designed, considering the load factor and other climatic challenges.

According to the statement, the door of the sanctum sanctorum will be embellished with gold.
