#harharmahadev #dharidevimandir #maadurga #navratri The biggest mistake that led to the 2013 Kedarnath Flood was related to the Dhari Devi Temple, which is located in the river Alaknanda, between Srinagar and Rudraprayag in Uttarakhand, India. On June 16, 2013, the idol of Maa Dhari Devi was removed from its original location and shifted to another site to facilitate the construction of a dam. Just a few hours after the idol was moved, heavy rain and flooding hit the Kedarnath valley. and washed away the whole town near the shrine and caused the deaths of hundreds of people. The flood also badly damaged five districts in Uttarakhand. People who live there and those who worship the goddess believe that the bad flood happened because the goddess was angry. She was moved from her original abode to make space for the dam. Something similar happened in 1882 when a local king moved the idol, and that also led to a terrible landslide that destroyed Kedarnath Town. Goddess Dhari Devi is revered as the guardian goddess of mountains and pilgrims and is also known as the "Protector of the Char Dhams" in Uttarakhand. Her shrine is one of the 108 Shakti Sthals in India. Jai Kedareshwar, Jai Maa Dhari Devi. #templesofindia
