New Delhi: Visiting the birthplace of Lord Hanuman will become easier for devotees because the Centre has started the process to build an ambitious 6-km ropeway project worth Rs 377 crore to the Anjaneri hills in Nashik. It will be built over the next two years from the Brahmagiri trekking point to Anjaneri hills, which is a steep road at present and takes nearly two to three hours to cover on foot.

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), under the central government’s key ‘Parvaratmala’ scheme, invited bids for the project on Friday, News18 reported, claiming that it has accessed the document.

The temple

Anjaneri Hills is said to be the birthplace of Hanuman and has a cave as well as an Anjani Mata temple, which is visited by pilgrims and trekkers. One has to climb three mountains to reach the temple, which is located at a height of over 4,200 feet. Once the ropeway, measuring 5.7 km in length, comes up across the three mountains, the journey to the top will be reduced to a few minutes.
