The construction company is confident of finishing civil works by the end of December and is putting up slabs on the ground floor. The carving work of pillars within the ‘mandaps’ has also been expedited.
At least 2,500 workers were already engaged in construction work but the need for additional workforce was felt.
Meanwhile, the local administration is also roping in corporate houses to enhance facilities on the Ram Janmabhoomi Path, the 560-metre road that will be the key route for devotees to reach the entrance gate of the temple. Follow channel on WhatsApp
