The temple will be constructed by Larson and Toubro at a cost of about Rs 300-400 crore.
The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust will launch one of the biggest fundraising campaigns on January 14 for the construction of the Ayodhya Ram temple, covering half of the country’s population.
The Trust, which is facilitating the construction, said nearly 4 lakh volunteers will cover 55 crore people (11 crore families) in 5 lakh villages during the whirlwind campaign of 44 days ending on February 27, the first day of holy bath in the Kumbh Mela.
“People will be made aware of the historical significance of the Janmabhoomi movement. The Trust has envisaged that just as crores of Rambhakts contributed for the freedom of Ram Janmabhoomi, the temple shall also be built with their voluntary contributions,” read a tweet by the Trust. The families will also be given photos of the proposed Ram temple model.
