The Naina Devi Temple Trust has become the first Shakti Peeth in Himachal Pradesh to produce biogas from organic waste generated by its community kitchen or langar, officials said on Saturday. The temple, located in Himachal’s Bilaspur district, attracts a large number of devotees. By generating biogas from langar waste, it has earned the distinction of becoming the first such religious institution in the state to implement such an initiative, they said. Dharampal Chaudhary, chairman of the Shri Naina Devi Temple Trust and the local sub-divisional magistrate (SDM), said “The capacity of this biogas plant will be further expanded in the near future.”  The trust has installed a modern, pre-fabricated biogas plant equipped with solid waste management capabilities. The plant is now fully operational and the gas is being utilised directly in the temple kitchen to prepare Prasad and langar meals.
