Brief Industrial Profile of Chitrakoot District

1. General Characteristics of the District

On 6 May 1997 a new district was carved out from the erstwhile Banda district. The

district was initially named as Chhatrapati Shahuji Nagar. On 4 September 1998, it was

renamed as Chitrakoot district. Chtrakoot is a holy place famous both for its scenic

beauty and spiritual altitude. A tourist is as much thrilled by sighting its beautiful

waterfalls, playful young deer and dancing peacocks as a pilgrim is overwhelmed by

taking a dip in the Payaswani or Mandakini river and by immersing himself in the dust of

the Kamatgiri. From times

immemorial, the Chitrakoot area

has been a live centre of

inspiration for cosmic

consciousness.

Chitrakoot, 'the hill of many

wonders' is a place of great

mythological relevance and

religious importance. It is

associated with historic Ramayana

epic as this was the place where Lord Rama, Sita, and Lakshman spent their 11 years

of exile.
