The Samikhsya Correspondent

RAIPUR: Chhattisgarh’s dynamic Chief Minister and veteran Congress leader Bhupesh Baghel has proved that Lord Ram does not belong to the arch rival BJP alone.

His decision to develop the Ram Van Gaman Path, the route that Lord Ram is believed to have traversed during his 14 years of exile, besides construction of magnificent Mata Kaushalya Mandir has baffled his political rivals.

The Congress-led government this year executed its concept plan on developing key locations which are believed to lie along the route of Lord Ram’s 14 years of exile.

“My government has envisioned Ram-Rajya as conceived by Mahatma Gandhi, where there is equality, compassion and brotherhood”, the veteran Congress leader has stated.

“We will make Lord Ram’s maternal home Chandkhuri as reverent and imposing as any place in the mythological tales,” Baghel has announced.

As per the wise political move spearheaded by the Chief Minister, his government would host a mega event at Chandkhuri, the birth place of Ram’s mother Mata Kaushalya, to mark the completion of two years of Congress government in the state on December 17.

Adding further attraction to the occasion, two separate bike rallies would be taken up from Sukma and Korea to culminate at Chandkhuri. Besides, a ‘Tourism Rath’ would be flagged off that would cover 1,400-km route of the Ram Van Gaman Path culminate at the maternal home of Lord Ram on December 17.

Chandkhuri, situated at a distance of 30 kilometres from Raipur, is the site where the state government has already begun creating a magnificent temple of Mata Kaushalya at a cost of Rs 15.78 crore.
