JAMMU | Took part in Bhoomi Pujan and unveiled the plaque to mark the laying of foundation stone in presence of Union MoS Dr Jitendra Singh, Union MoS G Kishan Reddy, Chairman TTD Board and other dignitaries: LG Manoj Sinha
My sincere gratitude towards Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams Board & Union Govt. for fulfilling the long pending wish of people of J&K and North India for establishing the Temple of Lord Balaji on the land of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi.
It is a historic and proud day for J&K. Lord Balaji’s divine blessing is a state of inner celebration. Ved Pathshala in the second phase will strengthen the foundation of Indian culture.
The construction of temple will also open up opportunities across sectors and it will certainly change the economy of the region.
Spread over 62 acres, the temple is expected to be completed in 18 months in two phases, costing Rs 33.22 cr, giving a major push to religious pilgrimage tourism in Jammu.
The prestigious project will also include a host of pilgrimage facilities and other Educational & Developmental infrastructure like Veda Pathshala- Classrooms, Hostel Building & staff quarters; pilgrims amenities complex, Kalyanamandapam Vahanamandapam etc.
