Detailed Solution

The given statement is False.
They were built by the kings and queens, not by the commoners. A temple can only be built by a wealthy king who can afford the enormous sums of money and labour it takes. Stone for the construction of temples was sourced from around the world. Granite and soft stone are the most common types used in construction. Granite stone was chosen for the temples because of its durability and resistance to erosion. Sculptures were also made easier to carve out of the soft stone. Even the location of future construction projects was carefully considered to ensure it would be accessible to the kingdom's residents.
The correct statement is kings and queens decided to build temples and stupas.
