Tirth Raj 'Lok-Bhawan' is one of the old Tirths in the hierarchy of all the old Tirth Sathans in Kashmir. This ancient shrine was known by the name of Lok-Punya, named after Lalita Datia, the famous ruler of 17th century A.D. The word Lok-Punya signifies the Devine greatness of the shrine. With the passage of time the word Punya was replaced by 'Bhawan' for the reasons unknown. This Shrine was in a state of oblivion. It was taken care by Shri Poshkar Nath Koul Ji and flourished under the leadership of this dedicated man, whose face and forehead reflects dazzle of a yogi and who speared no efforts to rennovate the Tirth.

Ever since insurgency started in Kashmir, Lok-Bhawan Shrine went in exile like other shrines of Kashmir. Its members along with their patron, migrated to Jammu continued their strenuous efforts to re-establish the institution as "Shri Pushkara Swami Sewa Ashram" in Chinore, Bantalab, Jammu. Socio-religious activities like mass yagnopaveet are being performed right from the year 1996. Every year Maha yagya is performed by the Management Trust on 'Har-Bah' festival to continue the activities of Lok-Bhawan Shrine.

A branch of 'Shri Pushkara Swami Sewa Ashram' has been opened at Kashmiri Colony, Vetasta Enclave, Najafgarh, New Delhi to make it convenient for the devotees at Delhi to continue all the activities of the Ashram with same aim and objectives.
