Augharnath Mandir, Sadar Bazar, near Westend road, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh

Augharnath Mandir, or Kali Paltan Mandir as it is lovingly called due to its proximity to the old cantonment, is a revered shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva. It stands in the heart of Meerut, embracing both spiritual fervor and a rich tapestry of historical events. The temple, in its enduring silence, tells the tale of valor and devotion, where Indian soldiers once whispered the secrets of rebellion under its shade. Today, the temple houses not only the self-manifested Shivalinga but also a shrine dedicated to Lord Krishna, adding to its divine grace.
