Ayodhya Ram Mandir: First picture of the temple captured from space by Indian satellite

Ahead of the mega-consecration ceremony of the Ram Mandir, Isro’s National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC) has shared the first visuals of the grand structure which were captured by the indigenous satellites from space.

In the photos shared by NRSC, the under-construction Ram Mandir can be seen with an enlarged view. According to the NRSC, the under-construction temple was captured by Indian satellites on December 16, 2023, nearly a month before the consecration ceremony.

In the satellite images, the re-developed Dashrath Mahal and Sarayu River can also be seen near the Ram Mandir. The newly renovated Ayodhya railway station can also be seen in the images shared by the NRSC.
