A 33-foot-long, 210-tonne Shiva Lingam, touted as the world's tallest, has reached Bihar after a 3,000-km journey from Tamil Nadu. It will be installed at the under-construction Virat Ramayana Temple in Kaithwalia, East Champaran, on January 17, with Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and other leaders attending. Carved from a single black granite rock, it marks a key milestone in the ambitious project.
