Aiming to facilitate the pilgrims visiting Shri Ram Mandir along with famous nearby pilgrim destinations like Ram ki Paidi, Hanuman Garhi, Nageshwar Nath Temple, Birla Temple, Uttar Pradesh Government is making special arrangements for VVIP tourists by the government, including the introduction of electric cars to transform Ayodhya into a city with net zero carbon emissions.

As of now, twelve electric cars are available to ensure a comfortable and eco-friendly travel experience for VVIP tourists. These electric vehicles are stationed at key locations such as Ayodhya Cantt Railway Station, Ayodhya Dham Junction, and Maharishi Valmiki International Airport Ayodhya, ready to welcome and serve VVIPs.

Meanwhile, on the auspicious occasion of consecration ceremony of Lord Ram Lalla, more cars will be brought that will help in visiting all the religious centres like Ram Janambhoomi, Suraj Kund, Suryu river, Bharat Kund, etc. The fare for these electric cars will start at Rs 250 for 10kms, Rs 400 for 20 kms and goes up to Rs 3000 for 12 hours. 

Notably, the foundation of the Mandir has been constructed with a 14-meter- thick layer of roller-compacted concrete (RCC), giving it the appearance of artificial rock.
