In a significant development, the construction of a grand temple of Lord Ram began in the ancient city of Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh (UP) on Monday (23 March) with special prayers being initiated to shift the idol of the deity to a temporary structure, reports Hindu Businessline.

Special prayers will continue even today, post which the idols will finally be moved to the temporary structure on Wednesday morning. Once shifted, the diety's idols will now remain at the temporary structure until the construction of the grand temple is completed.
