Overview
Sundarkand Path for families in Sainikpuri
Sundarkand Path is the recitation of Sundarkand, the fifth book of Goswami Tulsidas's Ramcharitmanas, which describes Hanuman's leap across the ocean, his search for Sita in Lanka, his meeting with her in the Ashok Vatika and his return to Shri Rama with news of her. It is a chapter of courage, devotion and hope.
Sainikpuri is a leafy residential area in the north-east of Secunderabad, near AS Rao Nagar and Kapra. It was originally developed as a colony for defence personnel, and its wide streets, independent houses and calm atmosphere still reflect that planned beginning.
