The under-construction Ram temple in Ayodhya has been at the centre of a political tug-of-war. The structure is being built at the site of the now demolished Babri Masjid. In 2019 a Supreme Court ruling allowed for the construction of a Ram temple at the site while land was given to build a mosque somewhere else. The construction of the temple is being supervised by the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust.
