Construction of Ram Temple in Ayodhya Granted Intellectual Property Rights for Camera Footage Recordings

The Ram Mandir Trust, which oversees the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya, has declared that the intellectual property rights (IPR) of the construction recordings belong to them. These recordings were captured using five time-lapse cameras installed at the site [1].

The IPR includes everything from the excavation and soil testing to the phased construction of the temple, as stated by Nripendra Misra, the chairman of the Ram temple's construction committee [1]. The exact plans for the use of these recordings have not been explicitly disclosed, but they are likely to be utilised for various purposes such as:

  1. Documentation and archival of the construction process.
  2. Promotion and educational purposes, showcasing the temple's building stages.
  3. Creating multimedia content for awareness or fundraising.
  4. Preserving cultural and religious heritage.

Since the Ram Mandir Trust holds the rights, they control how these recordings will be used, in line with the temple's cultural and religious significance [1].

The construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya began on August 5, 2020. The recordings from the cameras will be handed over to the Central Building Research Institute (CBRI), Roorkee, for further use [1].

Five time-lapse cameras have been installed at the construction site, capturing the progress of the temple's construction. Detailed consideration was given to the design of the temporary temple monument and the granite pillar during the review [1].

No conflicting or additional details about third-party ownership or broader usage rights have been found in the search results, indicating that the Ram Mandir Trust is the sole rights holder for these recordings.

This unique collection of construction recordings promises to provide a valuable insight into the construction process of the Ram temple, preserving the history and heritage for future generations.
