TIL Desk/National/Ayodhya/ The proposed Ram temple in Ayodhya will now be bigger and taler in size. According to Nikhil Sompura, an architect and son of C. Sompura, chief architect of the temple, “The earlier design was prepared in 1988. Over 30 years have passed… the footfall is likely to increase.
People are also very enthusiastic about visiting the temple. So, we thought its size should be increased. As per the revised design, the height of the temple has been increased from 141-feet to 161-feet.” Sompura said that two mandaps have also been added to the design and all pillars and the stones that were carved based on the earlier design will still be used. Only two new ‘mandaps’ have been added.
The original design that was prepared in 1988, mentioned its height as 141 feet which has been raised to 161 foot tall. The construction will begin after a grand ground-breaking ceremony on August 5 and for this, invitations have also been sent to the Prime Minister’s Office and other VIPs. The construction of temple will take around 3.5 years, Sompura said.
