Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The important architectural features of the temples in Bengal were the double-roof dochala and the four-roof chauchala. Within the comparatively more complex four-roofed structure, four triangular roofs on the four walls move up to converge on a curved line or a degree. Temples were usually built on a square platform. The outer walls of the many temples were decorated with paintings, ornamental tiles, or terracotta tablets. In some temples, particularly in Vishnupur within the Bankura district of the state, such decorations reached a high degree of excellence.
Hence the correct statement would be that the important architectural features of the temples in Bengal were the double-roofed structures (dochala).
