The facility of online ‘prasad’ and online donation are already available to the devotees on the website.

Agnihotri, while presiding over a meeting with the Temple Trust officials, said that temples were the symbols of our religious faith and the Chintpurni shrine, which is one of the 51 Shakti Peeth of the Hindu theology, would be developed to provide good quality facilities to the devotees. He called upon the temple priests, Trust officials and the devotees to contribute towards making the shrine a hub of “religious tourism”.

He said that the path from the Mai Das Multi-Purpose tourist complex to the shrine would soon have facilities of drinking water, toilet and benches at various locations. He added that a safe alternative path would also be created for devotees who travel to the shrine by bowing down on their bellies at every step.
