Nepal temple prepares to gift 350-tonne stones to build Ram statue in Ayodhya

The Hindu  

Two shilas, around seven feet long and weighing over 350 tonnes, from Nepal’s Kali Gandaki river are set to arrive at Ayodhya, where they will be used to carve the idol of Lord Ram, said the priests from Janaki temple, Nepal. A group of priests, local leaders and residents of Beni Municipality, gathered on the banks of Kali Gandaki river in Myagdi district in Nepal on Sunday to perform a pooja for the giant Himalayan stones. The ceremony was attended by Bimalendra Nidhi, Central Committee Member, Nepali Congress; Prithvi Man Gurung, Chief of the Gandaki Province; and, Rajendra Singh Pankaj, a senior Vishwa Hindu Parishad leader, among others. It was Mr. Rai, who in November 2022, sent a letter to the Janaki Temple, welcoming the idea of getting stones from Kali Gandaki river to build the statue of Lord Ram.
