IIT Kanpur Develops Machine to Make Kedarnath Temple Prasad Laddus, Easing Women’s Workload

Kanpur/Dehradun: In a significant development for Kedarnath Temple’s prasad preparation, a research scholar at IIT Kanpur is designing a machine to automate the making of laddus, traditionally prepared from chulai (amaranth) and jaggery.
