Jhulelal Tirathdham
Jhulelal Tirathdham is built at Gujarat Sindh border near Narayan Sarovar. Jhulelal Tirathdham is a dream of Dr. Subadra Anand who did research and wrote a book on Sindhis dispersed across the world. Book is titled as "National Integration of Sindhis". As per Dr.Subhadra Anand one holy place or structure is essential to unite any community. People from that community visit that place as place of pilgrimage and exchange the facts about life and living.
Jhulelal Tirathdham project today is headed by stalwarts from the Sindhi Community like Shri. Dilip Lakhi who is the Chairman of the Trust. He is a known philanthropist who has contributed generously to the Somnath and Badrinath temples besides many others. There is also Mr. Harish Fabiani (Spain), Dadi Pushpa D.
