Mumbai – In the past two years, the Maharashtra Government has undertaken the renovation and conservation work of 9 ancient temples and the cave carvings. But the Archaeological Department is creating obstacles to the conservation and renovation work that is to be done at the Shri Ekavira Devi Temple in Karla and 5 other temples, delaying the completion of renovation work.

The temples to be renovated were Karla’s Shri Ekavira Devi Temple, Ratnagiri’s Shri Dhootapapeshwar Temple, Shri Kopeshwar Temple at Khidrapur in Kolhapur, Sinnar’s (Nashik) Shri Govindeshwar Temple, Shri Khandoba Temple at Chatrapati Sambhajinagar, Beed’s Bhagwan Shri Purushottam Temple at Purushottampuri, Lasur’s (Amaravati) Shri Anandeshwar Temple, Gadchiroli’s Shri Markandeshwar Temple and Satara’s Shri Utteshwar
Temple. But only renovation work at Dhootpapeshwar, Khandoba, Bhagwan Purushottam and Utteshwar Temples has started.

Editorial Perspective
Please note that the Archaeological Survey of India that is obstructing the repairs of Hindu temples, does not dare to obstruct the work of sacred places of other religions. The entire Hindu community must raise its voice against this.
