"In fact, the last Legislative Assembly of the Jammu and Kashmir State had constituted a House Committee for the purpose, which, inter alia, had also favourably considered the plea about the taking up of the affairs of the revered shrine by the SMVDSB", Rana said while interacting with a delegation of the area, which called on him here this afternoon. Rana hoped the Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, who is also the Chairperson of the SMVDSB, will take a considerate view over the popular demand of the people in general and the locals of the area in particular and instruct for initiating necessary process in this regard. This will go a long way in creating infrastructural facilities for the devotees. Rana said the Jammu division has potential of emerging as a premier pilgrim centre of North India and steps are required to be taken in optimal harnessing of the spiritual treasure. This will give immense fillip to Jammu economy like the famous shrine of Mata Vaishno Devi on Trikuta Hills, he added. The delegation wished the SMVDSB to take a view on the long pending demand of the locals and take over the management of the shrine for its upkeep. The delegation was led by Pandit Tript Shastri and others. Earlier Pandit Tript Shastri also presented a book -Shri Mal Mata Sukrala Devi Ji Ka Ethihas Aur Pooja Vidhi to Rana. |
