Basilika der Göttlichen Mutterschaft Unserer Lieben Frau

Die Basilika der Göttlichen Mutterschaft Unserer Lieben Frau (englisch Basilica of the Divine Motherhood of Our Lady, Hindi उल्हतु चर्च) ist eine römisch-katholische Kirche in Ulhatu in der Nähe von Ranchi im indischen Bundesstaat Jharkhand. Die Kirche des Erzbistums Ranchi ist der Gottesmutter Maria gewidmet und trägt den Titel einer Basilica minor. Geschichte Nach Missionierung in den 1880er Jahren durch den Belgier Constant Lieven, auch Apostel der Chotanagpur genannt, erfolgte in Kiwali 1903 die Gründung einer Dorfschule und 1907 der Bau einer Kapelle. 1948 kam es zu einer Verlegung nach Bhuthataur, weiterhin als Teil der Pfarrei der Marienkathedrale in Ranchi. 1952 legte Pater Defrijn den Grundstein für den Bau einer Kirche in Ulhatu und eines einfachen Schulgebäudes. Die Kirche wurde offiziell im Jahr 1953 gegründet. Bald kamen Pilger nach Ulhatu. Im Jahr 1995 konnte eine neue Pfarrkirche in Ulhatu geweiht werden. 2004 wurde die Kirche durch Papst Johannes Paul II. zur Basilica minor erhoben. Die Kirche wurde daraufhin zur angemessenen Feier der Sakramente in den Jahren 2013 und 2014 weiter ausgestattet und musste auch erweitert werden. 2016 wurde die Erhebung der Kirche dann durch Telespohre Kardinal Toppo bei dem Fest zur Kirchweihe feierlich verkündet.

Basilica of the Divine Motherhood of Our Lady

The Basilica of the Divine Motherhood of Our Lady is a minor basilica in Ulhatu, near Ranchi in India. The decree designating it as a basilica was issued on 30 November 2004. In the Roman Catholic Church, the Virgin Mary is regarded not only as the Mother of God but also as the Mother of the Church. The origins of this church can be traced back to 1903, to a remote village called Kawali, where a village primary school was opened and placed under the care of a catechist. A village chapel was built at Kawali in 1907 and later shifted to Bhuthataur in 1948. A primary school functioned from here also and a priest attended the mass in this church. This was a time when Ulhatu still formed a part of the Ranchi Cathedral parish. In 1952 when Fr Defrijn laid the foundation of the church and school building, living in a hut. The church was formally established in the year 1953. Soon pilgrims started to arrive at Ulhatu. In this shrine the statue of Our Lady of Halle feeding the child Jesus is placed. There are several stories that are attached to the Mary in this parish. According to legend, when enemies attacked the city of Ranchi the locals sought her help. The statue of Our Lady received all the cannonballs of the enemies, becoming blackened but saving the city. This parish happens to be within the Horal Jungle Field Firing Range. Another story which talks of a student, Constant Lievens, who went on a pilgrimage to Mary in Halle and got a confirmation of his vocation to the Ranchi Missionary. When Lievens visited Kawali village in the year 1889, he saved the lives of people there, resulting in a movement towards the church. The story goes that Lievens was sick in Belgium and he yearned to return to the church in honor of Our Lady. Lievens died but his remains were sent to Ranchi in 1993, just a hundred years after this death. His plan was implemented at Ulhatu where the shrine was blessed in 1995. The Ulhatu church has village chapels attached to it in Banpur, Barhibera, Jaratoli, Kawali, Kudagarha, Plandu, Serengtoli, and Sogod. Several convents are run by this church, including St Anne's Convent, Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and educational institutions including St Joseph's High School, RC Middle School and Primary Schools, Convent School and St Anne's KG School and St Anne's Grihini School. There is also a St Anne's Dispensary that functions at Raja Ulhatu, Ranchi serving the less-privileged members of society. References
Basilique de la Maternité-Divine d'Ulhatu

La basilique de la maternité divine (en anglais Basilica of the Divine Motherhood of our Lady) est un édifice religieux catholique sis à Raja Ulhatu près de Ranchi, au Jharkhand (Inde). L’église qui abrite une reproduction de la statue Notre-Dame de Halle, est devenue sanctuaire marial et fut élevée au rang de basilique mineure en 2004. Histoire Dans la tradition chrétienne la Vierge Marie, mère de Jésus, est également considérée comme la ‘Mère de Dieu’ (en grec : Theotokos) et Mère de l'Église. Dans sa maternité divine la Vierge Marie est vénérée par une dévotion mariale particulière, mais aussi dans l’art, l’architecture, la poésie et la musique. Une de ces églises dédiée à la maternité divine se trouve à Ulhatu, près de Ranchi, en Inde. C’est le premier sanctuaire marial du Chotanagpur, la région de l’Inde centrale évangélisée par le père Constant Lievens. Pour les quelques convertis catholiques une très modeste chapelle fut construite à Kawali en 1907 et confiée à un catéchiste. Le lieu de culte est transféré à Bhuthataur en 1948, avec école primaire et prêtre résident. Ulhatu dépend encore de la paroisse de la cathédrale de Ranchi. En 1952 le père Defrijn, missionnaire jésuite belge, met en chantier la construction d’une église et d’une école. Lui-même continue à vivre dans une hutte. La paroisse d’Ulhatu est érigée en 1953 et l’église est dédiée à la maternité divine de Marie. Bientôt des pèlerins arrivent en nombre pour vénérer Notre-Dame de Halle, dont la statue fut apportée de la basilique du même nom (en Belgique), visitée par le père Lievens dans sa jeunesse. Le nombre de pèlerins augmentant rapidement, venant de l’archidiocèse de Ranchi (la ville de Ranchi est proche) et des autres diocèses du Chotanagpur, des travaux d’extension de la basilique sont entrepris en 2004. Son mobilier est mis aux normes telles qu’imposées par la Congrégation pour le culte divin et la discipline des sacrements. L’église est également église paroissiale et compte un bon nombre de chapelles dépendantes pour les besoins pastoraux des catholiques des villages environnants : Banpur, Barhibera, Jaratoli, Kawali, Kudagarha, Palandu, Serengtoli, and Sogod. Plusieurs couvents et institutions scolaires assurent l’éducation des jeunes. À Ulhatu un dispensaire est également au service de défavorisés ; il est dirigé par les sœurs de Sainte-Anne.

After repeated requests & agitations by civil society organisation; Odisha Development Forum the airport has been designated by the union government to be developed as a regional airport the government's under UDAN scheme in 2018. The expansion plan includes to develop the airport in three phases, in which the first phase including a passenger terminal for serving commercial traffic has been completed. The runway is capable of handling 9 to 10-seater aircraft like the Cessna 208 Caravan aircraft. The second phase includes a new Air Traffic Control (ATC) tower and regular scheduled flight operations from Berhampur Airport. The final third phase will involve the expansion of the airport and operating flights with larger aircraft. At present, the airport has been approved for handling non-scheduled commercial flights by the Government of Odisha, and the new low-cost regional airline, IndiaOne Air, began to operate from the airport to Bhubaneswar two times per week, from 5 March 2023.
