The biggest temple bell, 'Ghanta', has been installed in the Ratangarh Mandir in Madhya Pradesh recently.

This bell weighs nearly 1,935 kg. Government officials say that earlier the heaviest ghanta weight 1500 kg, which is in Kerala.

So the record has been broken. The photograph will give you an idea about the size of the bell.

In the photograph above, Minister Narootam Mishra is also seen, with the bell.

Chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, his wife and other politicians were present when the bell was put up.

The remote of the hydraulic motor was pressed and the bell went up. The ceremony was held in Datia district in MP. The photographs are courtesy Raj Express and Dainik Bhaskar newspapers.
