Mumbai, January 24
The Ayodhya Ram Temple will be built in around three years and the construction cost will exceed Rs 1,100 crore, a prominent functionary of the temple trust has said.
“The main temple will be built in three years and will cost Rs 300-400 crore. The expenditure on the development of the entire 70 acre land will exceed Rs 1,100 crore,” said Swami Govind Dev Giri Maharaj, treasurer of Ram Janmabhoomi Tirath Kshetra Nyas.
To a query on criticism from some quarters that the Ram Temple funds collection drive was a BJP campaign keeping in view the 2024 Lok Sabha polls, he said, “People see this depending on the colour of spectacles they wear.” — PTI
