Punjab Newsline, Naina Devi, April 4-
Punjab CM Bhagwant Singh Mann on Friday announced that the state government will make all out efforts to start Ropeway between Sri Anandpur Sahib and Sri Naina Devi ji to facilitate the pilgrims.
Interacting with the media persons after paying obeisance at Sri Naina Devi ji temple, the Chief Minister said that he would request his Himachal Pradesh counterpart to formulate a joint action group comprising officers to expedite this project in larger public interest. He envisioned that ropeway would facilitate lakhs of devotees visiting these two historic and religious sites in a smooth and hassle-free manner adding he bemoaned that the project never became reality despite lip service by previous regimes. Mann said that Sri Anandpur Sahib in Punjab and Sri Naina Devi ji in Himachal Pradesh were famous pilgrim destinations visited by devotees from across the globe and this ropeway will facilitate pilgrims to visit these two shrines located quite far from each other, with hilly terrain compounding the problems of the devotees.
