| Sagoon people angry with "Davak Nallah" boards | | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, Dec 24: Mahant Shri Rajesh Bittu of Radha Madhav Trust R.S. Pura, today visited village Sagoon situated at Surinsar Mansar Road along with Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State Executive Member Raman Suri to show him the deteriorated condition of the area and its temples.
During their visit, they met and discussed various important village development issues with Kuldeep Singh (Panch), Omkar Dutt and Bishan Dutt (who have renovated the 200 years old Radha Krishan and Narsingh Temple), Naresh Samyal (who is looking after the ancient Aap Shambhu Temple situated at the hill) and other prominent people of the area including Sagar Singh, Krishan Lal, Gandarb Singh as well as Shubham Sharma.
Raman Suri and Mahant Rajesh Bittu also visited the Gram Devta to seek his blessings. The local people of Sagoon village have huge respect for the Gram Devta and they believe that Gram Devta protects the area and its people from all evils. Also, the people, very keenly narrated to them, the history of Surinsar and Mansar Lake, dating back to Pandavas era.
The locals also apprised them of the poor condition of Holy Devika River, that passes through the village and expressed their anger over the two boards beside Holy Devika river with "Devak Nallah" written over them instead of "Holy Devika". On one hand, the people worship Holy Devika and on the other hand, this blunder by the administration has taken over the minds of people with anger. At this, Raman Suri said that Devika is a holy river and urged the administration for immediate removal of the existing boards and their replacement with new "Holy Devika" or "Devika Maiya" boards.
Devika originates from Sudh Mahadev and flows through Udhampur, Jindrah, Sagoon and Tlaed, after which it takes the form of Gupt Ganga from Purmandal and then flows in the same form through Utter Behni and Aerma.
People of the area demanded construction of a small Bridge and Ghat at Holy Devika river, and also complete development near the ancient Aap Shambhu Temple, for which Raman Suri affirmed that he will definitely take up the matter with concerned authorities and the work will commence soon. |
