The idol is of a 5-year-old Ram and has been made using a dark-coloured stone. It's height is 51 inches.
Karnataka's Arun Yogiraj sculpted the idol for Ayodhya's Ram temple.
The idol has been installed in the sanctum sanctorum of the Ram temple. The consecration ceremony is on January 22.
Idol has been designed with the guidance of scientists to ensure that on Ram Navami, sunlight directly falls on Ram's forehead at noon.
3 idols were short-listed for the new temple. Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra trust members voted to select the final idol.
The Ram Lalla idol is adorned with a bow and arrow. Crafted by three selected artisans, idols are made of Shyam Shila stone and white marble.
Designed for longevity, the idol is expected to endure for the next 1,000 years without requiring restoration.
