50% of work on Ayodhya Ram Mandir completed, says CM Yogi
Jaipur (Rajasthan), October 6: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath stated on Thursday that more than half of the work on the under-construction Ram Mandir in Ayodhya has been finished.
The UP CM made this announcement while attending an event at Shri Panchkhand Peeth in Rajasthan.
Speaking at the event CM Adityanath said that the 'Shri Panchkhand Peeth' has always taken the lead in all social and religious movements.
"Mahatma Ramchandra Veer Ji Maharaj and Swami Acharya Dharmendra Ji Maharaj were the ones who contributed selflessly towards the country. The 'Peeth' also played a crucial role in ensuring public participation in various campaigns led by the saints for the welfare of the country," CM Yogi added.
During the 'Chadarposhi' ceremony of Swami Somendra Sharma, the CM stated that Acharya Dharmendra had a deep connection with Gorakshapeeth for three generations.
"Acharya ji always had a sense of belonging, my deepest respect to him," he added.
Addressing the 'Sant Samagam', CM Yogi stated, "India's Sanatan Dharm gives utmost importance to the protection of our 'Gau Matas' (cows)."

He further added, "Dedicated efforts were made to realise the dream of Ram Mandir for which the movement started in 1949. Resultantly, today, over 50 per cent of work on the Ram Mandir, which was also a dream of Acharya Ji, has neared completion."
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath laid the foundation stone for the Ram Temple's 'Garbha Griha,' or sanctum sanctorum, in June of this year.
The construction of Lord Ram's temple in Ayodhya is moving rapidly. Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone for the Ram temple on August 5, 2020, and work on the building has continued since then.
The Supreme Court's five-judge Constitution bench, led by Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi (now retired), unanimously ruled on November 9, 2019, that the land in Ayodhya where the Babri Masjid formerly stood belongs to Ram Lalla.
