Jammu/Reasi, Aug 23: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha laid the foundation stone for the restoration of the Holy Shrine of Shiv Khori, today through virtual mode.
In his address, the Lt Governor appreciated Sajjan Jindal, Chairman and MD of JSW Group and the entire team for taking up the work for the restoration of Shiv Khori shrine. He said the new facilities will ease the pilgrimage and increase the influx of devotees.

He said the last three years have seen a glorious rejuvenation of various tourism sites and offbeat destinations.
The Lt Governor called upon the civil society members, the local residents and all the stakeholders to make their important contribution in the restoration of the shrine and developing better facilities for the devotees.
He also reiterated the commitment of the administration for the extension of Shri Shiv Khori Shrine Board.
Sajjan Jindal, Chairman and Managing Director, JSW Group spoke on the CSR initiatives of the JSW Group in J&K and expressed gratitude to the Lt Governor for providing an opportunity to the JSW Foundation to serve the people of the UT. He also shared the action plan for the execution of the restoration project.
