Bhajans by students of Manav Rachna International School and singer Padamjeet Sehrawat added to the pious surroundings of the early morning peace at Dr O P Bhalla Memorial Sthal, fondly known as the ‘Prerna Sthal’ situated in the midst of the Manav Rachna campus. During his lifetime, Dr O P Bhalla initiated many activities for the upliftment of the society. Following the footsteps of this great social reformer, Dr O P Bhalla Foundation along with the Bansal and the Dhal family initiated a PNG Cremation Facility at the Swarg Ashram, Ajronda Crematorium today. Smt. Satya Bhalla, Chief Patron, Manav Rachna Educational Institutions (MREI) dedicated this facility to the citizens of Faridabad in the presence of Cabinet Minister Sh. Vipul Goel.

Dr. Prashant Bhalla informed: “It is essential to create awareness about the ill effect of burning wood for cremating dead bodies and about its negative impact on the environment.
Traditional funeral pyre requires around 400 Kg of firewood. I, therefore, urge everyone to use PNG cremation system – it is safe, hygienic, eco-friendly and cost-effective. All traditional rituals can be performed during the PNG cremation system”. State-of-the-art modern cameras have been installed at the crematorium.
