A two-day long exhibition on temples of Kashmir will begin from November 26 here.
"We are holding a two-day long exhibition of temples of Kashmir from November 26 and 27," President of Zeashta Devi Prabandhak Committee (ZDPC) B B Bhat said.
ZDPC and Temples and Shrines Management Board Kashmir will jointly organise the exhibition at Kala Kendra here, he said.
An intellectual meet will also be held on November 27 to discuss the issue confronting the community, Bhat said.
As many as 208 temples in the Valley were damaged during past two decades of militancy with Srinagar witnessing highest number of acts of vandalism.
"Of the 438 temples in the Valley, 208 had been damaged over the years," the state government had said in a written reply to the state assembly in response to a question by a BJP MLA in 2012.
The government has, however, said that there was no illegal encroachment of temple land in the Valley.
