India Company East India Company

Papers Relating To Juggernauth (1848) is a book that contains a collection of official documents and correspondence from the East India Company regarding the Juggernauth temple in India. The papers date back to the mid-19th century and provide a fascinating insight into the complex relationship between the British colonial authorities and the Hindu population of India.The Juggernauth temple was one of the most important religious sites in India, and the papers in this book detail the efforts of the East India Company to regulate and control the temple and its rituals. The documents cover a wide range of topics, including the appointment of temple officials, the management of temple finances, and the regulation of pilgrimages to the site.One of the most interesting aspects of the book is the way in which it sheds light on the tensions between the British authorities and the Hindu community in India. The papers reveal how the British attempted to impose their own values and beliefs on the temple, often coming into conflict with the deeply held religious traditions of the local population.Overall, Papers Relating To Juggernauth (1848) is an important historical document that provides a valuable insight into the complex relationship between the British colonial authorities and the Hindu population of India in the mid-19th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of India, colonialism, or religious studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
