Ramraj Cotton’s Public Welfare Project: Rs. 35 Lakh Initiative

Tiruvannamalai, 14^th May, 2025: Ramraj Cotton, India’s leading company in traditional and cultural dhoti production, has successfully completed the installation of a protective fence along the revered 14-kilometer Girivalam path encircling Arunachala Mountain in Tiruvannamalai. The initiative, undertaken at a cost of Rs. 35 lakh, aims to enhance the safety of pilgrims and protect surrounding farmlands from wildlife intrusion.

The Girivalam path is a spiritually significant route, walked daily by thousands of devotees as part of their religious observance. In recent times, increased wildlife movement along the path has posed safety risks to pilgrims and have caused damage to agricultural land. The newly installed fencing addresses these concerns, offering a safer environment for both devotees and farmers.

Mr. K.R. Nagarajan, Founder and Chairman of Ramraj Cotton, stated, “It is everyone’s duty to protect sacred spaces. With this project, we have brought together spiritual well-being, agricultural safety, and environmental balance. This fence will safeguard pilgrims, support farmers, and allow wildlife to remain undisturbed in its natural habitat. This is the kind of harmonious living Ramraj stands for.”

Ramraj Cotton extends its heartfelt appreciation and congratulations to the National Hindu Temples Foundation, its National Secretary Mr. Suresh, and the forest department officials who helped successfully implement this project
