Even as Prime Minister Narendra Modi has inaugurated the world's tallest Sardar Patel's ‘Statue of Unity’ at 183 metre, the height of the proposed Lord Ram statue in Ayodhya has also been increased to 151 metre.

Earlier, a 100 metre Lord Ram statue was proposed to be built in the temple town with public and private funds. However, the Yogi Adityanath government has decided to erect a much taller structure measuring 151 metres, which would propel it among the tallest statues in the league of ‘Statue of Unity’ and ‘Spring Temple Buddha’ statue in China, which measures 153 metres.
