On August 5, after performing the 'Bhumi Pujan' for the long-yearned for Ram Mandir, PM Modi, addressed the gathering talking about the 'Ram Mandir dream' for which people have fought for centuries. Calling it similar to the Independence struggle, PM Modi said that the Ram Mandir struggle was a result of the efforts of many generations. He added said that the Bhoomi Pujan was a 'symbol of the resolution of crores of people' loudly chanting 'Jai Siya Ram' - a soft deviation from the usual 'Jai Shri Ram'. The construction is expected to be completed in the span of 36-40 months.
