One of the largest temples dedicated to Duryodhan in the
Mahabharata is found at Oslo
in Uttarkashi District in Uttarakhand. Duryodhana is the main villain in the
Mahabharata and one who practiced Adharma. So why is there a temple dedicated
to Duryodhan in Oslo ?
The popular belief is that the soldiers and people who
supported Duryodhana escaped from the Kurukshetra and took refuge in this area
of Uttarkashi. They built temples in memory of Duryodhana and Karna here.
Today they are the protecting deities of the region.
A couple of temples dedicated to Duryodhan can be found in
the region at Saur, Sarnaul, Gangar and Datmir.
Mussoorie one has to travel through Yamuna Bridge ,
Naugaon, Purola, Saur and Sankri to reach Osla.
