The construction of the grand temple of Shri Ram in Ayodhya has been completely completed and is now ready to attract devotees with its captivating architecture as per the original plan of Shri Ram Mandir.
Although the Shri Ram Mandir in Ayodhya was officially opened for the darshan of devotees on January 22 last year, many construction works related to the Shri Ram Mandir were pending. The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust had earlier announced that all these works would be completed by the end of 2025 and the darshan of Ramlallah would be fully facilitated. However, all the work of the Shri Ram Mandir has now been completed ahead of schedule and on November 25, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the temple complex by hoisting the religious flag on top of the main temple. On this occasion, about six to eight thousand dignitaries from India and abroad are being invited. The trust's president, Nripendra Mishra, has informed that traditional worship and havans will be performed in all the temples on that day. The most joyful thing to inform the devotees of Sri Rama is that the Sri Rama Janmabhoomi Theertha Kshetra Trust has officially announced that all the work of the Sri Rama temple has been completed.
All the works related to the temple have been completed, and only some project works are pending outside the temple complex, such as the construction of a well-equipped wall on both sides of the 3.50 km road for public use, a guest house, a hall, etc.
What are the special features?
The temple, which houses a stone statue of Bala Sri Rama carved by Mysore sculptor Arun Yogiraj, was available for devotees to visit since January last year. The works of Shiva, Ganesha, Anjaneya, Sahadeva Bhagavati, Annapurna and Sheshavatara temples have now been completed and devotees can have darshan of the gods in these temples from November 25.
Kalash and Dhwajasthamba have been constructed on all these seven temples. Similarly, 7 mantapas have also been constructed in front of the respective temples in an attractive manner in the temple complex. The seven mantapas have been named after Maharishi Valmiki, Vishwamitra, Maharishi Agastya, Nishad Raj, Shabari, and the sage's wife Ahalya. The intended works have been completed, and due to this, the attractive idols of Rama's family can be seen on the first floor of the main temple. 5 mantapas have been constructed namely Nrityamantapa, Rangamatapa, Sabhamantapa, Prarthana Mantapa, and Kirtana Mantapa. At the heart of these is the court of Lord Rama, with statues of Lord Rama, Sita, Lakshmana, Hanuman, Shatrughna and Bharat carved in marble. Lord Rama and Sita are seated on an impressive throne made of gold, while Hanuman and Bharat are seated at their feet with devotion. Lakshmana and Shatrughna stand obediently behind Lord Rama and Sita. On this floor alone, pillars have been carved from 140 stones. Images of various episodes from the Ramayana can be seen on these pillars. On the first floor, the family of Lord Rama has been beautifully sculpted using rare stones.
However, the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teertha Kshetra Trust has yet to give a definitive answer to the question of whether the public should be allowed to enter this floor or should the hall be viewed from a distance from the outside.
Similarly, a temple of Sant Shrestha Tulsidas has also been built in a separate place. A huge statue of Jatayu and the famous squirrel of Ramsevak fame will also be installed in the Shri Ram temple complex. The country's prestigious construction firm Larson and Turbo has done the best quality work. Saplings are everywhere in the temple complex. Medicinal plants, green beds are adorning the temple premises, giving a divine feeling. The construction of a flower garden called Panchavani on an area of 10 acres is also nearing completion.
Yogi praises the workers
A few months ago, some people had sarcastically questioned whether it would be possible to build a Ram temple in Ayodhya as planned and on the specified days. However, now everything has been completed smoothly, and the faith of Indians and devotees of Shri Ram has become even stronger. Last year, 6 crore devotees visited the Shri Ram temple, setting a record. Expressing joy that this number will increase further in the future, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath congratulated all the workers who built the Shri Ram temple with the grandeur of ancient times in the intended manner. Last year, on January 22, the entire country celebrated with devotion on the day of the inauguration of the Shri Ram temple. Now, on November 25, the work of the Shri Ram temple across the country will be completely completed and the Ram temple complex will be inaugurated, and there will be a lot of excitement and joy across the country.
