In Hathras district's Sadabad tehsil, a long-standing demand of villagers is finally being fulfilled as road construction has begun for the historic Bankhandi Mahadev Temple, located around 650 meters from Dhahar Kheria village. The temple, believed to be over 200 years old, is a major religious site where devotees from 26 nearby villages bring *kanwars* to offer holy water to Lord Shiva. However, the unpaved road leading to the temple had long posed challenges for pilgrims, especially during the rainy season. Local social worker Prashant Sharma had raised this issue multiple times and eventually sat on a hunger strike to press for the road’s construction. His protest garnered widespread support from political parties and social organizations. In response, the administration intervened, assured action, and ended the protest by offering juice to Sharma. Now, fulfilling their promise, the authorities have officially commenced the road construction work. The news has brought immense joy among the villagers and devotees, who believe this step will significantly ease access to the temple and enhance safety during religious events.
