Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The shikhara of Kandariya Mahadeva temple is not taller than that of Rajarajeshwara. However, since the shikhara of Kandariya Mahadeva temple is only 31 metres, and that of the Rajarajeshvara temple is more than 62 metres high, the shikhara of the Rajarajeshvara temple is taller than that of the Kandariya Mahadeva temple. It is because King Dhangadeva of the Chandela dynasty built the Kandariya Mahadeva temple to honour Shiva.
Hence, the correct statement would be that the shikhara of Kandariya Mahadeva temple is not taller than that of Rajarajeshwara temple.
