Ayodhya (Uttar Pradesh) [India], August 19 : Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday took stock of the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya.

According to the official statement from the chief minister’s office, CM Yogi will also participate in other programs after visiting the Ram Janmabhoomi complex and observing the works of the temple construction.

In February 2020, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the constitution of Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra, to oversee the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya.
Earlier on November 9, 2019, a five-judge Supreme Court bench led by then Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi ruled in favour of Ram Lalla and said that the entire disputed land spread over 2.7 acres will be handed over to a trust formed by the government, which will monitor the construction of a Ram Temple at the site.
