Temple ReOpens

The Temple reopens after the just concluded 2 week maintenance shutdown. Extensive preparations were done to give an edifying  and uplifting experience to the patrons everytime they visit to perform vicarious work. Noticeably upon enterring the complex leading to the Temple, the absence of once lush greens and some trees is conspicuous. The scenery is like having a makeover which in due time would make again the place always beautiful with the greens , flowers and trees blossoming.
