TEMPLE HISTORY

The following key milestones provide important phases of the evolution of CVHTS. Connecticut Valley Hindu Temple Society (CVHTS) was founded in 1979 by a community of Hindu families who strived hard to achieve the goal by giving their time and energy. JUNE 1979 The first Executive Committee meeting was held under the leadership of Dr. A.V. Srinivasan, one of the Founders and President of CVHTS. MARCH 1980 Federal tax-exempt status was granted to CVHTS. OCTOBER 1985 CVHTS purchased the land in Middletown, CT to build the temple. NOVEMBER 1984 The Bhoomi Puja was conducted at the temple site. A major donation of $50,000 by Dr. Surendra Chawla, in memory of his loving mother, Srimati Parbati was made to CVHTS. The entrance hall in the temple is named after her. AUGUST 1986 The ground-breaking and temple foundation was laid by Yogendra Singh of L & S Construction, Inc., Trumbull, CT. JANUARY 1991 Dr. V. Manohar was elected Chairman of the Board of Trustees.
