The Ram temple in Ayodhya will have an eight-foot-tall gold-plated marble throne for Ram Lalla’s idol. The throne, being made by artisans in Rajasthan, will reach Ayodhya by December 15. The temple construction work has been intensified, with the ground floor expected to be ready by the same date. Ram devotees have also donated gold and silver items which will be melted down for safekeeping. The first floor is 80% complete, and the construction of the sanctum sanctorum is finished. The work on other areas of the temple is also progressing.
