Third cave spotted in Gupt Godavari in Chitrakoot

Why in News?

On January 22, 2023, Sdm P.S. Tripathi of Majhgawan in Satna, Madhya Pradesh, said that the third cave has been found near Gupt Godavari in the Madhya Pradesh region of Dharmanagari Chitrakoot, the tapobhoomi of Lord Ram. Soon the archaeological department team will be called and information will be made.

Key Points

• SDM P.S. Tripathi said that the length of the cave is about 25 feet and the width is one and a half meters. Due to darkness, the Sdm of Majhgawan and a team of several officers could go only12 feet inside. Due to darkness, the officers have reached only half the distance.
• It is known that chitrakoot dharmanagari has preserved its historical importance since ancient times. In the tubers and caves of the natural hills of Dharmanagari, saints and seers are immersed in penance, whose sights are very rare. There are many such secrets of Dharmanagari, which are still out of reach.
