Cooch Behar, Oct. 21:
Renovation work on Madan Mohan Temple, a heritage site, is
going on and will be completed before Rashmela, which begins
on November 15.
The District Magistrate of Cooch Behar said
that the Kali Temple in Varanasi and Krishna Temple in Vrindaban,
which are also temples under the Cooch Behar Debottar Trust
Board, would be renovated. A team of officials had already
left for Varanasi and Vrindaban to assess the status of the
two temples.
The renovation of the Madan Mohan Temple
built in 1889 began three months ago.
The public works department of Cooch Behar
has been entrusted with the renovation work of the temple
in Cooch Behar. The Kathamia Temple, which shares the same
premises with the Madan Mohan Temple, is also being repaired.
