Nestled on Gujarat’s Veraval coast, Somnath Temple is a chronicle of survival against obliteration. Following a millennium of invasions by Ghazni, the Tughlaqs, and Aurangzeb, the temple lay in ruins until independence ignited hope. Sardar Patel’s 1947 initiative transformed despair into action, resulting in a majestic reconstruction. Prime Minister Narendra Modi views Somnath as a metaphor for India’s rebirth. He has unveiled a roadmap featuring Vedic schools and high-speed rail links, ensuring the temple remains a beacon of cultural renaissance in modern India.
