With the blessings of the Almighty, I was fortunate enough to visit the holy Hemkunt sahib during 25th-30th July ‘09.
I witnessed Hemkunt Sahib trust Committee initiatives for glorifying the holy shrine & the facilities being provided to the pilgrims & foreign tourists. On behalf of & as President, Sikh Brotherhood International” I congratulated them. These efforts put in give good image to the foreign tourists visiting Hemkunt sahib in spreading awareness about Sikhism & message of Sikh Gurus. It is a great service to the sikh kaum & humanity .These people deserve the compliments for the same .
During my visit, I met Mr. Sanjay Chauhan, Chairman, Eco friendly committee & Owner of Hotel Gangotri, Gobind Dham ( Ghagaria ) & saw their endeavours towards area maintenance, cleaning & improving the overall ambience. This committee is honoured with “Best Maintained Pilgrimage Award” ( hemkunt sahib) for their good work. Considering their efforts, I think that if help is extended to them, it will contribute to enhance our efforts & purpose in improving the atmosphere & arrangements of Hemkunt Sahib. I summed up a few points for the trusts consideration
1. As the corporation has approved and making shed forhorses for 100 horses and eco association builing two rooms with toilet for them and they wanted help from gurudwara trust if they can help for seond floor as rest room for care takers by you. In fact there are more than 250 horses & hence it is suggested that arrangements may be increased for 250 horses in a two storey building in which 1st floor may be used for the rest of horse owners.
2. There are 30 safaiwalas who work for the cleanliness of this route. They manage food from outside. This wastes their time & money during work .Hence it is suggested that 15 people may be provided langar at Gobind dham & 15 at Gobind Ghat They will be respectful to our community & will work more efficiently .
3. 20nos horses travel upwards & have nothing during return for gurudwara luggage. These horses may be utilized for taking waste material back. At present association want if gurudwara committee provide them six horses to take back kitchen waste from govind dham gurudwara which they are throwing out side the kitchen wall and they are also providing black carry bags..
4. There is no proper arrangement for toilet sewage dirt disposal at hemkunt sahib. The seepage water from toilet disposal is coming down & mixed in drinking water of the hotels. Solution to this is that Parnala may be treated by filtration plant or by diverting the disposal on the other side. With your best wishes the grace of almighty my suggestions were welcomed & approved by the committee.
