HIMALAYAN HIGHWAYS| Nagni Mata's Village Sankot| UTTARAKHAND|CHAMOLI| NARAYANBAGAD| THARALI

Today, the Himalayan Highways team introduces you to the remote Himalayan village of Sankot. Located in the Narayanbagad development block of the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand, Sankot village is one of those Himalayan villages that remain committed to their traditions and beliefs in this modern age. The village, home to its Kuldevi Mata Girija Bhavani and village deity Nagni Mata, is a sight to behold. Located near the Bugyal region, the climate is generally cold, and agriculture and animal husbandry are the primary occupations of the people. In ancient times, the village was named Sankot due to its seven forts (areas). Sankot village boasts nine water wells that still draw water from natural sources to meet the needs of the local population. With the road connection to Narayanbagad, access to the local market has become easier for the people of this area. Religious events are held here throughout the year, and residents of this village, living in cities, also visit the village to participate in the events.
