Ram Temple Construction: A Timeline 

Following the Bhoomi puja conducted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 5 August 2020, the temple's construction has been advancing at a swift pace. In February 2020, PM Modi had announced the establishment of the Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra to manage the temple construction. 

Additionally, on 9th November 2019, a five-judge Supreme Court bench, led by then Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi, resolved the prolonged dispute by granting the entire disputed land of 2.7 acres to a government-formed trust. This trust is now responsible for overseeing the temple's construction on the site.

The archaeological vestiges unveiled during the construction process have not only provided valuable insights into the history of the site but have also enhanced the cultural resonance of this revered locale serving as a testament to its rich ancient past.
