On Monday, the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust announced that an estimated Rs 1,800 crore will be spent to build the Ram temple in Ayodhya. The figure was arrived at based on a report filed by experts, it said.

A look at how this compares with the temple construction and redevelopment projects undertaken over the last couple of years:

• Rs 1,800 crore

On March 28, Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, popularly known as KCR, inaugurated a revamped Lord Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy in the Yadadri-Bhuvanagiri district – about 70 km away from Hyderabad. The total cost of the project is estimated to be Rs 1,800 crore.

• Rs 800 crore
