Sri Sankathara Ganapathy Temple (opposite City Apartments)Hindu Temple made with Vaastu principles(Temple Architecture) practiced in South India for 1400 years of known history.
Built and cosecrated in April 2004 but pulled down in early 2009 as DDA(Delhi Development Authority- a state owned TownPlanner) refused to give an adjacent plot just measuring 220 SqYards. Since the present land is a narrow strip with little walk around space around the main santum sanctorium, a request was made to DDA to allot the adjacent plot. On the stout denial of the extra land, a painful decision to pull down the Temple and rebuild with rearrangement of the chapels numbering half a dozen in a comfortable layout was taken by the devotees with a heavy heart.
