Poonch, May 18 (ANI): Lohar Devta Temple may be located at an elevated slope of Ghani Hill in Krishna Ghati mountain range, but this is not restricting devotees to cross a treacherous path to reach the religious place. An annual religious function, at the temple, draws devotees, including Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs, from different parts of the state to pay respects to Lohar Devta. Located in the Muslim dominated village of Ghani, the temple is at thirty one kilometre distance from the main town, Pooch. It is also close to the Line of Actual Control, a demarcation line that separates Indian-held lands from Chinese-controlled territory, and is surrounded by the lofty peaks of Pir Panchal, providing a soothing experience to devotees. Lohar Devta Temple is considered an important religious place for Hindus of Pooch Principality. During the annual gathering, devotees perform Havan, a religious ritual, to appease the Lord Devta. Later, they also hold individual prayers inside the temple.
