The Ram Mandir, also known as the Ayodhya Ram Mandir, is a Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Rama, a significant deity in Hinduism. The temple is located in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, India. The construction of the temple has been a matter of historical and political significance in India.

The site has been a focal point of religious and political tensions for many years, stemming from the demolition of the Babri Masjid (mosque) in 1992 by a Hindu nationalist mob. The dispute over the land has been a source of contention between Hindus and Muslims in India for several decades.

In 2019, the Supreme Court of India delivered a landmark verdict in the Ayodhya dispute, allowing the construction of a Hindu temple at the disputed site. The court also directed the government to allocate an alternative piece of land to the Muslim community for the construction of a mosque. The construction of the Ram Mandir officially began after a groundbreaking ceremony in August 2020.

The Ram Mandir is expected to become a significant religious and cultural symbol for Hindus in India, marking the fulfillment of a long-standing demand to have a grand temple dedicated to Lord Rama at the disputed site in Ayodhya.
