The Prime Minister further said that the Ram temple will inspire the entire humanity till eternity.

“I believe that this grand Ram temple to be built in Ayodhya, like the name of Shri Ram, will reflect the rich heritage of Indian culture. I believe it will inspire the entire humanity till eternity,” he said.

We have to ensure everyone’s development with the support and trust of all,” he added.

PM Modi further said the Ram temple will become a modern symbol of India’s traditions.
