A new town will come up near the Badrinath temple, as part of a special plan by the Uttarakhand goverment to beautify the shrine area in Chamoli district.
The plan entails vacating the area falling within 50 km radius of the shrine which is being occupied by bungalows, Badrinath-Kedarnath Temple Committee chairman Anusuya Prasad said.
The owners of the bungalows will be asked to to re-locate to the Nar mountain range, Bhatt added.
A committee to execute the plan has been formed under the leadership of a former MP Manohar Kant Dhyani, she said.
Bhatt said this plan will help in better managment of traffic as the shrine is visited by approximately 5 lakh devotees every year.
