The Jain Shravaks came from Baroda to Bharuch to take control of the idols recovered from the findings here. Rana Gambheersinghji requested them to reside in his kingdom, as no Jain Sharavak was willing to live there, because handing over the findings to other state would raise a number of questions on the Rana's kingdom. Later, he thus offered much relief to their establishment. After they agreed, Rana built a temple and all the idols were established in this very position. He finally handed over the charge of the Jhagadia Tirth to Shri Sangh after 30 years. The Jhagadia Tirth is situated on the Bharuch-Rajpimpala route, 33 km Bharuch city. The Managing Trustee, Shri Jain Rikhabdev Maharaj ki Pedhi looks into the able administration of the temple works, and has constructed a dharamshala (rest house) and a bhojanshala (eatery). |
