Lahore: A 126-year-old Shiv temple in Pakistan’s Sindh province has been opened for worshippers after it was renovated and its administrative control was handed over to a local Hindu organisation, an official said on Friday.
The Evacuee Trust Property Board, which looks after the places of worship of the minorities in Pakistan, said it had recently completed the renovation of dozens of temples across the country.
“The 126-year-old Shiv Temple, also known as Goswami Parshutam Ghar Nihal Ghar, in Hyderabad has been renovated and made operational. More area has also been included in the temple so that Hindu visitors could properly perform their religious rituals, ETPB spokesperson Amir Hashmi told PTI.
