Jagran Prakashan has launched its fifth coffee table book that tells about the temples of Bihar.
After launching books on the entrepreneurs of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand and Punjab, Jagran Prakashan Publication has come up with another coffee table book, Devalya, which talks about the temples of Bihar.
Sinha terms it a big moment for the people of Bihar. "Devalaya is slated to represent the spiritual emotions of the state which is known for its religious lineage since ancient times. It not only documents shared holy vision but also gives reason to feel proud of the economically emerging state," adds Sinha.
Devalaya shall be succeeded by a similar book on the temples of Jharkhand.
Alok Sanwal, project head for the book applauds his team for the effort in its preparation. He says, "With continuing support from the JCTB team, we shall keep coming up with more and more such books which influence and benefit a whole spectrum of people and fraternities."
The launch event of Devalya was marked by a Bhajan Sandhya that involved a recital by noted vocalist Nandita Dash. It was attended by many eminent people from the Jagran group.
