00:00 Since 1992, this workshop was started after the Ayodhya movement.
00:07 The work of the temple was started here.
00:10 Despite the court's ban and all the obstacles in the movement,
00:15 the work continued in this workshop even after those circumstances.
00:19 And here, everything from the work of the leaves to the clay, everything was done.
00:24 It took 32-33 years to complete the work.
00:30 The temple was built 2-3 years before the Ayodhya movement.
00:34 But the work continued here.
00:37 And you can see how the work is still going on.
00:40 This is a small replica of the old temple, which was kept here.
00:56 And since then, it has been kept here.
00:58 You can see how much money is deposited in this donation letter for this temple.
01:05 And the work continued here, from the clay to the stones.
01:14 I've come here to show you that work, because the day of the 22nd....
01:17 ...Pranayam Pratishtha is approaching.
01:20 And before that, the work is still going on.
01:23 You can see the women are working on the big stones, which are to be...
01:35 ...used for the Ram Mandir, and they are being rubbed to make the stones.
01:40 And the women are working with full dedication.
01:44 Some have been working for 1.5 years, some for 2 years.
01:48 The work is being done in different ways, I will talk to some people.
01:55 You've been working here for a long time.

02:45 If God's house is built, my house will be built too.
02:47 If God sits in the house, we will all be happy.

07:58 And each piece of the pillar is fitted with a shape.
08:03 This is the big one.
08:07 There will be more stones.
08:10 These blades are different types of stones, which are used for sanding.
08:16 These stones are used to clean the black spots on the stone.
08:21 You can see women are standing around it.
08:24 After the sanding, the sand is being used for the temple.
08:29 Everyone is hoping that once their Lord Ram and his devotees....
08:33 ...visit their temple, they will definitely come to pay their respects.
