Adorned with intricately sculpted depictions of Hindu deities, gods, and goddesses, the three-storied temple is supported by 392 pillars and features 44 doors.

The main rituals of the consecration ceremony were officiated by a team of priests led by Varanasi priest Lakshmikant Dixit. The process began on January 16 with Vedic rituals, culminating in the placement of the idol of Shri Ram Lalla inside the sanctum sanctorum on January 18. Renowned Mysuru sculptor Arun Yogiraj crafted the idol, adding to the temple's cultural significance.
