Last month, the trust revealed the details of the construction process and claimed that the temple structure will be built without iron and will be based on ancient Indian techniques.
“The Mandir will be built by adhering to India’s ancient and traditional construction techniques. It will also be built to sustain earthquakes, storms and other natural calamities. Iron won’t be used in the construction of the Mandir,” the Trust had said.
