Amid land scam charges, Ram temple work goes on unhindered

The Ram Mandir Trust is under question these days over the case of an alleged land scam. Nevertheless, in the meantime, the ongoing construction work of the temple is not affected and the work of filling the foundation is being done in two consecutive shifts of 24 hours each.

At the same time, there are elaborate security arrangements in the Ram temple complex. The premises are being monitored 24 hours a day. For this, watchtowers and CCTV cameras have been installed, so that the construction and surrounding activities are monitored at all times.

About 50 layers of a 10-inch thick mixture of building material will be laid in about a 50-feet deep foundation measuring 400 feet long and 300 feet wide. Six layers of building material mixture have been stacked over the foundation land that spreads across 2.77 acres.

The work of about 9 layers has been completed, and the filling of the 10th layer has also been done, which will now be compacted.

The Ram Janmabhoomi complex in Ayodhya sprawls across 70 acres of land, but at present, the construction is going on in 5 acres of land. The work of filling the foundation with engineering field material is being done by digging 400 feet long, 300 feet wide, and 40 feet deep.
