Seven idols rescued from Srinagar Jain Mandir, brought to Ahmedabad

Seven Jain idols are taken to Ahmedabad from Srinagar’s Baghawan Parshwanath Jain Mandir. The idols are at present, temporarily kept at Ahmedabad’s Sangath Jain derasar. They will be shifted to Sabarmati area’s Ramnagar based Jain Mandir this Sunday in festive atmosphere.

The Sunni islamist anti-nationals of Kashmir, recently destroyed a Jain Mandir located on the banks of Alaknanda river in Kashmir valley’s Srinagar city. However, before they could do any harm to the idols, tha Jain Mandir’s priest took the idols out of the Mandir and shifted them to safer place.

Just in two hours of relaxation of curfew, the idols were immediately taken out of the Kashmir valley and are brought to Ahmedabad, where they will be installed at Ramnagar/Sabarmati based Jain Mandir this Sunday with ceremonial welcome.
