While addressing a press conference General Secretary of Trust, Ramesh Sharma highlighted the religious significance of the place and said that the agreement signed between JDA & Sabarmati River Front Development Corporation Ltd should increase its area of beautification of Tawi river front to Dev Sthan Bhair Dev in view of religious and historical importance of this pilgrim spot.
