50k Sindhi families to contribute Rs 51 each for Ram Mandir Nirman

Pune, January 07: While the Vishwa Hindu Parishad is busy campaigning the Ayodhya Ram Mandir Fund slated to begin by January 15, fifty thousand families from the city of Agra have decided to contribute Rs 51 each as a financial support to the project. 

 

The Vishwa Hindu Parishad in its press statement earlier this month had said that it would start campaigning the Ayodhya fund by January 15. Also it had said that the gratutious amount towards building Ram Mandir would be collected from everbody, may it be students, Rickshaw drivers, Chaiwalas and other thelawals.

 

 

Work on the foundation for the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya would start by the end of January, as noted by the Temple trust, even as it acknowledged that the study of the soil was still not complete even after seven months. From the day the construction starts, the temple would be completed in 36-39 months, said Champat Rai, general secretary of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra.

 

“We had hoped construction would have started in June but the study has not been completed after seven months. The results are not matching. There is sand, crumbly sand, under the ground or some old debris lying deep", said Rai at a press conference in Kanpur on this week.

 

 

 

The trust will start a mass contact and contribution campaign for the construction of the temple from Makar Sankranti. Over four lakh workers of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad have been tasked with collecting the funds and reaching out to people in four lakh villages across the country. The target would be to have “man-to-man and door-to-door” contact with 55-60 crore people during the fund raising, reiterated Rai.
