Proper development of the religious place in Gumla district, Anjan Dham, which is said to be the birthplace of lord Hanumana could not be carried out yet. Now, the same has been undertaken by the Forest officials of Gumla district. Divisional Forest Officer, Gumla, Shrikant has already drafted a plan, in which it has clearly been stated that the plan is to build a shade at the upper temple (where child Hanuman is in the lap of mother Anjani).
To enter the temple a gate is to be built and the remaining area will be encircled by bamboo. A railing by the concrete staircase and a semi umbrella roof over it is also a part of the plan. This staircase is used to reach to lower Temple. There will be a shade at the broader part of approach road.
The road adjoining upper temple and chand cave will be enlarged. For the purpose of beautification and provide employment to the locals the department has plans of plantation around the temple. All this is to be carried out under Eco tourism scheme.
The beautification of Anjan Dham was earlier to be carried out by the tourism department. It was proposed and sanctioned in the general budget of State. Four years after the approval and the funds released the matter stuck into technicalities and that is why the works could not be initialised.
The DFO said that to make the birth place beautiful and attractive the plan is ready. The plan is to be sent to the department up to May 25. Once the approval received the work of the beautification will be started. The department has the requisite funds for the beautification, he added.
