SRI SUNDARESWARAR NARPANI MANRAM
(To Renovate & Maintain Ancient Temples)

e-mail: soneswar@yahoo.co.in
Tamil Nadu has in its Ancient Temples, rare / beautiful Sculptures and Architectures. It evokes distress to find that most of them are in dilapidated conditions and on the verge of disappearance and ruination.
INTRODUCTION: SRI SUNDARESWARAR NARPANI MANRAM was formed to renovate neglected Temples in this Village. Already TWO Dilapidated / Ancient Temples - Sri Sundareswarar Temple and Sri Venkatesa Perumal Temple - (all more than 500 hundred years old) have been taken up for renovation WITH THE HELP OF GENEROUS DONATIONS FROM DEVOTEES, utilizing the physical help of local villagers and under the supervision of our Renovation Group.
RENOVATION ACTIVITIES: In all these ruined temples, huge bushes and deep roots have been cleared. The cracks on the Temples' Structures / Roof fixed. The Sculptures, Murals and the Images restored. We involved local residents to perform KUMBABHISHEKAMS for these Temples and also for future upkeep.

RENOVATION FOR THE FOLLOWING THIRD TEMPLE IS BEING TAKEN UP BY THIS NARPANI MANRAM.
