Shri Shankaracharya Temple Construction Also Gains Momentum
The Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board has also accelerated the construction of the Shri Shankaracharya Temple in the Shrine area. This project is considered a significant step towards realizing a nearly six-decade-old proposal. The concept was formulated in 1967, but work could not proceed due to various reasons.
The temple construction will cost an estimated ₹31.51 crore. According to officials, the target is to complete the construction by the end of this year. The construction of the temple will not only boost religious tourism but is also expected to enhance the local economy and employment opportunities.
The helicopter service and plans for the new temple are expected to provide a boost to tourism activities in the Katra and Reasi areas. The administration claims that after the completion of these projects, devotees will have a more convenient and safe travel experience.
