Chhattisgarh Temple Site Renamed Kaushalya Dham

In Chhattisgarh, a temple site called Bhawani Temple has been renamed Kaushalya Dham.

This change was announced by the state's Chief Minister.

The new name is in honor of Mata Kaushalya, who is the mother of Lord Rama.

The Chief Minister highlighted that Chhattisgarh is considered the maternal home of Mata Kaushalya and the place where Lord Rama spent a lot of time.

This renaming is the first time the government has renamed a temple complex.

There is already a temple dedicated to Mata Kaushalya in Chandkhuri.
