Ayodhya, March 1: Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust has informed that it has collected over Rs 2,100 crore for the construction of a grand Ram temple in the ancient holy city of Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh.
With this, the 44-day fund-raising campaign for the Ram Temple construction has come to an end on Saturday, the Supreme Court-mandated Trust said.
Prior to the crowdfunding campaign launch on January 15, the Trust had projected an estimate of Rs 1,100 crore for the Ram temple complex construction, but it has received Rs 1,000 crore more than what was projected.
Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust treasurer, Govind Dev Giri, said, “The fund-raising campaign has ended with generous contributions from all cross-sections of the people, including residents of far-flung villages of India, blurring religious barriers. Total donations received has crossed Rs 2,100 crore by Saturday evening.”
Giri had pegged the construction cost of the temple at Rs 300-400 crore while making an estimate of Rs 1,100 crore for building the entire complex on Ram Janambhoomi in December last year.
