JSW Cement’s Balaji
Temple (Nandyal, Andhra Pradesh)
Developed
by the JSW Group to fulfill the request of local people, who are predominantly
devotees of Lord Venkateswara, the Balaji Temple is spearheaded by JSW’s Ms. Anushree Jindal and designed and
executed by Shri Sameep Padora. The temple is constructed using locally available
black limestone. The temple's design
incorporates features that also aim to maintain the local water level. The
shrine is dedicated to Hindu Gods Balaji and Varahaswamy. A pond has been built as part of the temple to
help retain and recharge the local groundwater level. The pond’s water level is
replenished naturally and supplemented by water from nearby quarries. This
replenishing system offers relief in the arid terrain of the area. This region
is well known for its chilli and cotton farms.
