Ram temple complex in Ayodhya to be eco-friendly, says Ram Janmabhoomi Teertha Kshetra Trust

The Ram temple in the holy city of Ayodhya will be constructed as an eco-friendly tourist point. Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teertha Kshetra Trust is pondering over the idea as it expects a huge inflow of tourists once the temple is finished being constructed.

In order to develop an eco-friendly temple complex, the trust had sought suggestions from architects and people on its website. It has already received close to 450 suggestions regarding the design and layout of the grand Ram temple in the holy city of Ayodhya.

Innovative and Vastu-compliant designs have been sent by people and professionals like Engineers, architects, and Vaastu experts from across the country to develop the temple and other facilities on the 67 acres of land dedicated for the temple and complex development.

The last date for sending suggestions for the design of the temple was November 25. After receiving the suggestions a committee chaired by Govind Dev Giri Ji Maharaj, the treasurer of Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust was formed to pick the best design.

The committee is assisted by trustees, Vaastu experts, architects and members from the 'Sant Samaj' for quick implementation.

According to Dr Anil Mishra of the Ram Janmabhoomi Tirtha Kshetra Trust, the Ram temple will be constructed on 2.7 acres of land. I the remaining 67 acres other facilities will be developed for devotees and tourists under the 'Maha Yojana'.

Special emphasis is being given to developing greenery around the Ram temple complex in order to provide a clean environment. The complex will also have the country's first planetary constellation - Nakshatra Vatika. 

Help from the scientific fraternity of the country is also being sought by the trust to develop an eco-friendly temple complex at the site in Ayodhya.
