BJP seeks PM intervention in saving Dhari Devi shrine

Senior BJP leaders today sought Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh's intervention in saving the ancient Dhari Devi shrine in Uttarakhand. It is facing threat of submergence in the Srinagar Dam in Garhwal. The BJP delegation led by party's Parliamentary Board Chairman L K Advani and party President Nitin Gadkari met Dr.Singh at his residence in New Delhi. The party also demanded that Uttarakhand be given 2000 MW of free power from the Centre to cater to its needs as many hydel projects cannot be built on river Ganges, which is viewed as a national heritage.
