Meerut
is an ancient city in Uttar Pradesh, which according to the Hindu
mythology, was once ruled by Maya (मय),
or Mayāsura (मयासुर).
Mayāsura was an ancient king of Daitya or Asura or Rakshasa clan,
and was renowned for his architectural abilities. It is believed that
Mayāsura and his subjects even had the ability to melt stones and
boulders for construction of magnificent architectures.
Mayasura
ruled over MayaRastra (currently called Meerut in the state of Uttar
Pradesh, India). According to Uttar-Kand in Ramayana, Mayāsura was
the son of Diti and Rishi Kashyapa. He was the father of Mandodari
(Ravana's wife). Hence, Meerut is also known as 'Ravan Ki Sasural'
literally meaning 'home of Ravana's wife'. It is believed that
Mandodari used to worship Goddess Chandi in an old Chandi Devi temple
in the compound of Nauchandi ground.
Meerut
is one of the fastest developing cities in India. The infrastructure
of Meerut is currently going through a boom with many upcoming
projects consisting of lots a new buildings, shopping complexes,
malls, roads, flyovers, residential apartments. In the hubbub of the
city, there is a gray shade provided to the city by an area called GP
Block, which is renowned for being one of the most haunted locations
in the city.
The
GP Block is haunted by the ghosts of four men who are often sighted
in a double storey building, which has been abandoned for years. The
guys sit around a table in the with a solitary lighted candle,
enjoying, and drinking beer. Sightings of a lady clad in red dress
departing the building has often been reported. The sightings keeps
on reiterating again and again all over the building commencing from
the first floor, to second floor, and then ceasing at the terrace.
Mystery
shrouds behind the ghostly appearances till date. The two storey
building has been locked for many years, and people even can't
remember who used to live here, and when. However, due to predominant
ghostly sightings, and paranormal activity, people normally try to
avoid traveling through the road around the haunted building.
The
GP Block in Meerut is considered haunted and is placed at 9th
position in the list of ten most haunted places in India.
