Kedarnath temple is believed to have been constructed in the 8th century. Before disaster, kedarpuri was densly built leading to haphazard development and narrow streets near temple. The extents of kedarpuri were wide. AFTERAFTER In June 2013, Kedarnath valley was hit by flash floods. Majority of the area was completely washed away.This lead to the formation of a natural visual access towards the temple. Loss of infrastructure and land lead to the decrease in the extents of kedarpuri.Yet the temple stands strong, giving us a chance to restore it in a better way. There is greater vision of development of Kedar valley with multiple interventions along with the development of Kedarpuri. The region is expecting large number of yogis and spiritual enthusiasts getting deep into the meditation practice. Usually, these practices are taking place in isolated caves with bare minimum facilities needed. The development of such Maun Gufas/ Meditation Caves on the way to Kedarnath with basic facilities is one of the objective of this proposal. Source: www.flickr.com/photos/_leonid/5058612451 1. Maun Gufa / Meditation Caves 1. Maun Gufas / Meditation Caves Along the Tirth Yatra routes (5 nos.)

One of the important functions of the NGRBA is to prepare and implement a Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP). A Consortium of 7 Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) has been given the responsibility of preparing Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP) by the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF), GOI, New Delhi. Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) has been signed between 7 IITs (Bombay, Delhi, Guwahati, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Madras and Roorkee) and MoEF for this purpose on July 6, 2010. This report is one of the many reports prepared by IITs to describe the strategy, information, methodology, analysis and suggestions and recommendations in developing Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP). The overall Frame Work for documentation of GRB EMP and Indexing of Reports is presented on the inside cover page. There are two aspects to the development of GRB EMP. Dedicated people spent hours discussing concerns, issues and potential solutions to problems. This dedication leads to the preparation of reports that hope to articulate the outcome of the dialog in a way that is useful.

  • CHAR DHAM HINDU TEMPLE Saturday, January 23, 2016 at 10
    CHAR DHAM HINDU TEMPLE SPECIAL PRAYER AND BRICK CEREMONY Saturday, January 23, 2016 at 10:00 AM 8044 College Park Dr. The Woodlands, TX 77384. The Char Dham Hindu Temple in The Woodlands will be a unique temple with all the four temples in one location, and the only one of its kind in the world. The design is modeled after the Char Dham temples (Char means four, and Dham means temple) located at four corners of India today – Jagannath Dham at Puri in the East, Dwarakanath Dham at Dwarka in the West, Badrinath Dham at Badrinath in the North, and Rameswaram Dham at Rameswaram in the South. Char Dhams are regarded as extremely sacred to all Hindus and pilgrimage to the Char Dhams at least once in a lifetime is a dream come true for Hindu devotees. It is further believed that Adi Shankaracharya purposefully established these four Dhams in four corners of India during the 8th century, in an attempt to revive the Hindu religion and unify all Hindus across the country. The construction of the Char Dham Hindu Temples in The Woodlands is just beginning. As part of this ceremony participants will receive bricks dedicated in their name to be built into the temples and be remembered through the life of the temple. Participating families will be provided with a set of four bricks – one for each Char Dham temple. The bricks will have the families’ names identified on them. Participants will join in prayers led by our priests and at the end of the ceremony, the bricks will be taken by each family and placed on the four temple ground locations where they will be used to construct the temples.

  • Char Dham Project Is a Two-Lane Highway Project Currently Under Construction in the State of Uttarakhand by the Border Road Organisation
    Char Dham Highway Project The Char Dham project is a two-lane highway project currently under construction in the state of Uttarakhand by the Border Road Organisation. Upon the completion of the project, it will connect the four important pilgrim towns of Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri and Yamunotri. The details about the Char Dham Project given in this article will be useful for candidates appearing in the government exams. Overview of Char Dham Project The foundation stone of the ₹12,000 crore project was laid at Parade Ground in Dehradun by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on December 27 2016. The highway construction project is called as Char Dham Mahamarg Vikas Pariyojana and its aim is to improve the connectivity to the Chota Char Dham. The Chota Char Dham itself is a pilgrim circuit nestled in the Himalayas. The highway project will also be will have railway links and several long bridges and tunnels to eliminate accident and slide prone areas Some more facts about the Char Dham Project is given in the table below: Char Dham Highway Project Total Length of the Highway 719 North End Mana South End Rishikesh Maintained by National Highway Authority of India Proposed Routes Rishikesh–Yamunotri Rishikesh–Gangotri Rishikesh–Kedarnath Rishikesh–Badrinath .Environmental Concerns regarding the Char Dham Project Environmentalists had pointed out that the unregulated cutting of tries and scooping up land at the base of the hills is irreversibly damaging the ecosystem as well as making the regions the project passes through dangerously prone to landslides. Although the government had given orders to the contractors to treat the slopes before moving on to the next construction point, it was found that most had not done so.
