Sunjay Sudhir, the Indian ambassador to the UAE, gave a speech on the occasion at the temple, saying, "It is good news for the Indian community that a new Hindu temple is being inaugurated in Dubai today. This helps the UAE's sizable Hindu minority achieve its religious goals. In close proximity to a 2012-opened Gurudwara is the new temple.
According to a press release, the Hindu temple in Dubai is a modern spiritual centre for people of all religions and contains the many facets of divinity, including communal connection, worship, knowledge, and societal assistance.
Raju Shroff, a prominent member of the community and CEO of the Regal Group of Companies, was in charge of the design, building, and planning of the temple.

He declared, "Dubai's cooperation ensured that building timetables were not impacted despite Covid-19. A truly stunning symbol of how open-minded and kind the Dubai administration is is the Hindu Temple. Emirati generosity is still present. We are glad to be in Dubai, whether it was to open the first mandir in the nation or the Hindu Temple in 1958.
The second temple in Dubai is the recently opened Hindu temple. First one constructed in 1958.
"We are honoured that the new Hindu temple in Dubai was inaugurated by His Highness Sheikh Nahayan bin Mubarak Al Nahayan, the UAE's Minister of Tolerance. We express our gratitude to the Dubai Government for its generosity in providing the temple with land and supporting its development. According to the Indian ambassador to the UAE, "We also congratulate the Government of the UAE for giving 3.5 million Indians a second home where they live, work, and contribute to the economy and society.
In 1958, there were just 6000 Indians in the United States; today, there are 3.3 million. The community is very powerful with over 30,000 firms, including small, medium, and even international ones.
ABOUT THE TEMPLE:
The temple is home to sixteen deities. According to the trustees, each of the 16 deities has been purposefully positioned in particular areas in accordance with their individual wisdom and powers, drawing inspiration from the Mandala design.
Subhash Bhoite, a temple architecture consultant, brought his 45 years of knowledge to the table to make sure that everything was taken into consideration. He was thoroughly knowledgeable about every aspect, from breaking ground to placing idols and everything in between, thanks to his 124 temple design projects.
The Vastushastra concept, a set of instructions unique to Hindu architecture, is the idea that governs all the technical components. The Shiva Lingam was positioned in a high positive-wave focal location that permits the conduction of excellent vibrations through our bare feet before even starting the building, according to the information page about the temple.
The duality of the classic Hindu dome atop the Mashrabiya screens embedded with the 3D-printed lotus emblem is without a doubt the centrepiece.
Additionally, it has a floating hall with no columns so that energy can move freely across the room.
Almost 200,000 people visited the Temple in September using the QR code appointment system. By the end of the year, there will be a spacious community center where Hindu ceremonies, including rituals, prayers, weddings, naming ceremonies and janiyas(thread ceremony) can take place.
