KURUKSHETRA
The land of  Dharma

Though occupied a conspicuous place as a cradle of civilizations, it is not free from the sweep of the iron hand of time. Due to passage of long Yugas, much of its wealth and worth is found in tattered rags on last dregs of existence. Finding the architectural splendour and sculptural marvels lying scattered and buried; the Rishivatikas and dhyanamandirs over-grown with herbs and shurbs; the adored idols mutilated and abandoned, bathing ghats silted up; and dharmasalas in dilapidated condition, the Departments of Archaeology and Indian History of Universities like Kurukshetra and Delhi have undertaken excavation and renovation works for resurrection of its glory and publish to the world, the sacredness of its soil. The labors of scholars and scientists have already shed light on hitherto desolate mounds like Amin and Daulatpur. The indefatigable work of the spade and crowbar have discovered the idol of Se shasaya moorthy of Lord Vishnu at Faridkot. And sure many more of inestimable worth will rise from the desolate wilderness soon. Let us await that opportune time.
