Ayodhya Township

After the Supreme Court ordered construction of a Ram Temple on the disputed site in Ayodhya, the main architect of the temple, Chandrakant Sompura said on Sunday more land would be needed to create a township for the temple.

The Uttar Pradesh government is planning to develop a 500-acre 'New Ayodhya' township on the banks of the river Sarayu. This comes less than six month after chief minister Yogi Adityanath announced a grand 100 metre statue of Lord Ram in the ancient city.
