Lord Ram, an inextricable part of the collective memory of Indian civilization, is a symbol of righteousness and justice. The essence and significance of Ram have been understood instinctively for centuries in the Indian subcontinent and beyond. Ayodhya Ram Mandir: Bharat's Quest for Ram- Rajya captures the ancient sacred city of Ayodhya at a critical juncture of transformation with the construction of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple. The book explores the life and legends of Lord Ram popular in India and across the globe, while recounting the 500-year-long struggle for the reconstruction of Shri Ram Temple in Ayodhya until the matter was judicially resolved in 2019. It encapsulates the emergence of the city on the international tourist map as it reclaims its name with vigour-a land free of conflict, embodying peace and prosperity within its boundaries.
