Supreme Court on November 9, 2019, paved way for construction of Ram Mandir on the site at Ayodhya where Babri Masjid was demolished in 1992
A day after Union Home Minister Amit Shah announced that the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya will be ready by January 1 next year, temple trust general secretary Champat Rai on Friday said its construction will be completed "on time".
"As per plan, the idol of Ram Lalla will be installed in the sanctum sanctorum of the temple on Makar Sankranti (January 14) in 2024," said the general secretary of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust set up for the construction and management of the temple.
By the end of 2023, the construction at the sanctum sanctorum is expected to be completed, Rai said.
"We have set December 2023 as the deadline for construction of the temple and January 2024 to open it for devotees," Rai told PTI over phone from Ayodhya.
