Ayodhya: The auspicious start of the construction of Ram Mandir was marked on Saturday afternoon, after heavy earthmoving machines rolled into the Ramjanmabhoomi premises.
The chief priest, Acharya Satyendra Das, said, ” Machines have begun levelling land and clearing bushes and heavy thickets.”
Meanwhile, Indian construction major Larsen and Toubro (L&T) has offered to carry out the designing and construction of Ram Temple in Ayodhya free of cost, New Indian Express had reported.
The 270 foot long temple will be construed on a total area of 67 acres and will solely be built using stone slabs without the use of either iron or cement.
