Present state of affair in connection with the progress /development
The renowned Lake Kalibari, at south Kolkata, is slowly moving on its way to present a new concept of colorful, ornamental and multistoried unique Temple. While stepping forward towards this uphill task, we are facing series of hurdles in the form of various constraints, particularly for unavailability of necessary materials due to dearth of fund. But we are moving with strong determination and application keeping in mind that our endeavor and moral spirit will be always boosted by the direct and indirect co-operation from all corners. Now we take this opportunity to apprise you the present state of affair.
 
At the beginning of the project work the development was appreciably faster. But in course of time during the construction of the most critical part of the project, the rate of progress was retarded for obvious reasons.
 

Most important part of the project is to synchronize the modern conceptual technology followed by its regular up-datation particularly in the field of civil, architecture and electrical wings, to flourish its best application. This consumes more time. While curving creative ornamental figures, derived from the old historical records particularly from CHANDI, GITA and UPANISHAD on costly as well as rare available white marble and for getting its beautiful display by focusing with Light Emitting Diode lamps, the artist, architect and experts faces numerous problem for its actual formation, preservation and maintenance under several limits and conditions with respect to administrative rules and regulation.  

 

When we perform any work religiously to achieve our target, usually our determination and application leads to derive best possible output regardless of any condition and limitation.
The basic reason for delay of the work may be analyzed under the following salient points:-
1) Non-availability of the proper material as per specification from time to time.
2) Consumption of time for getting creative features after lot of considerations and curving on the marble.
3) Inadequate flow of fund by way of donation in time to maintain the continuity of the progress so derived and getting its formation on the marble
4) Co-ordination among Engineers, Architects, Artists, and model maker and lastly getting the best output on the marble by the skilled labors from time to time takes good length of time.
Creative nature of work is always very precise and its development is not always visible in a large way, although such kind of performance needs time for thinking and its application. Building of temple is such an opportunity that gives a scope to dedicate the mankind a valuable lesson through combination of profound knowledge, thoughts, creativity, dedication and application with art and culture on and around the temple with respect to its background. This rear opportunity is direct blessing of God and hardly comes through destiny in ones life to get involved directly in multi-various ways to dedicate various aspects to the new generation.
 
We therefore sincerely appeal to all of you to visit the site at your convenience and join us to expedite the progress by virtue of your active participation for it’s all round success towards this noble cause.
 
Let us join hand to work together to build our holy common platform “Lake Kalibari” with our best effort, heartily and generously in order to present a glorious historic milestone to the future generation of our nation and pray to MAA Karunamoyee for its grand success towards this mission as narrated in holy GITA.
 
Our achievement so far towards our target
With the blessing of Sree Sree 108 Karunamoyee Kalimata we were succeeded to install ornamental stone Pillars round the Puja Mandap coupled with fencing made with white stone Jali.
 
Secondly Dom top of the Puja Mandap which was initially made with round concrete beams forming 84 triangular cavities to carry same size of respective solid triangular white stone cover having its ornamental creative curving inside, have been installed forming one white stone umbrella with various motives blooming both civil and architectural design as well as exhibit an unique aesthetic view.
 
Now we have undertaken the fitment of various kinds of ornamental white stone Jalis around the three Sikharas from outside. This may be please be seen in the picture.
 
BUILDING MATERIAL PRESENTLY REQUIRED FOR CONTRIBUTION:
The structural part of our new temple which had started since 14th August 2002, is now almost in a stage/position of completion as per approved plan. This was possible due to generous extension of donation in terms Materials and Fund by the devotees. Now at this juncture to continue this construction uninterruptedly , we need to have the following materials urgently:-
1) White Stones :-    
      White Block :   Makrana white Stone (Source : Makrana, Rajasthan, India)
      Required for :  
a) Ornamental & curves. Pillers round the Puja Mandap and the Parikrama.
b) Triangular parabolic in shape and curving white blocks for filling the gaps among the curved beam on the Puja mandap.
c) White blocks for Staircase
d) Jali (Jafries) on the fancing and around the three Sikharas
2) White Stones :-    
     
a) 40 mm thick size : 6’-0” × 3’-6”
b) 16 mm thick size : 6’-0” × 3’-6”
                              7’-0” × 5’-0”
NOTE :
White Stone Blocks and Slabs are high cost items as because in our climatic condition, the humidity is always high. So we have decided to procure stones both blocks and slabs from Makrana, Rajasthan, India, which have got less water absorption due to its hardness. It is said to be required around rupees six crores to meet our purpose for undertaking such work, considering total material (Stones) and allied items.
