Stop the construction of unnecessary bridge in front of keshi Ghat on Holy river of yamuna in Vrindavan


On Yamuna ji a two way highway bridge is being built to divert the traffic which, makes a half ring,

through the Keshi Ghat. This Bridge serves no purpose but reveals the cruelty towards our yamuna ji.


Just think after constrution of the bridge, how will it look in front of Keshi Ghat?

Let us go through what PROBLEMS & DAMAGES the bridge would bring...

• Decreasing the already scarce supply of sweetwater in Vrindavan.
• Obliteration of the view of Keshi Ghat, a world famous landmark that often define Vrindavan in the public imagination.
• Destruction of an area traditionally used for boating and viewing the Vrindavan Skyline.
• Rendering Yamuna water even more dangerous for human consumption and thus threatening the health of devotees taking achman.
• Further endangerment of the Ganges dolphins, river turtles and several species of fish and birds
• Detracting from the peace and purity of the place by creating noise and air pollution from traffic
• Further damaging Keshi Ghat’s sandstone structures with air pollution


SO LET US ALL STAND TOGETHER FOR THE RESTORATION OF YAMUNA JI`s KESHI GHAT, VRINDAVAN
With respect to all citizens of this material world, we invite you to give your support to a Vrindavan with a clean Yamuna river and without a bridge in front of Keshi Ghat. We have to find a solution to the many problems the growing city of Vrindavan is facing. Some past mistakes due too insufficient research have to be corrected. We need the participation of all. It is the time to save the wonderful old ghats and accommodate the new growth of traffic to the holy Dham. Please sign this petition to show your support for the beautiful Vrindavan every pilgrim and Brijbasi deserves to see.
The holy Yamuna is in need of active support. so let us all come together and sign the petition to stop the execution of making of this bridge.
Your Servant In Service Of Srila Prabhupada and Gurudev,
Sachin Kumar Gupta
