Travelogue: North-East Indian States By Bhamy V. Shenoy
While travelling to Tezpur from Shillong, en-route there is Maha Mrityunjay Temple at Nagaon which has the world’s largest 126 foot Shivalinga. Construction work started in 2003 and the temple was inaugurated last year. It was a big disappointment when we reached the temple to see a poorly maintained place. While there is nothing to praise of the architecture ( just gigantic size), but much to criticise of the failure to develop the surrounding areas. The worst part was the sad state of toilets. Even worse, it was not easy to locate them.
