Preparation for the safety of the temple

According to the plan, 25 monitoring towers will be built with four kilometers long boundary walls of the temple complex. Mishra informed that security measures will be discussed with the district administration soon. The safety of Ram temple will be very strong.

He also emphasized the need to plan what will be seen for the pilgrims of India and abroad after visiting the temple and emphasized to develop Ayodhya as a major tourist city.

In the Ramayana, the squirrel is considered revered for its small but dedicated contribution given by Lord Rama’s army in the construction of Ram Setu. Its presence on Ram Janmabhoomi is now a symbol of collective efforts, devotion and importance of humility in the grand construction of the temple.
