Amit Shah hails holding of Navratri Puja at Sharda Temple after 75 years

New Delhi October 16: Union Home Minister Amit Shah has hailed on performing of Navratri Puja at historic Sharda Temple along the LOC in Teethwal Kashmir after 75 years.
“It is a matter of profound spiritual significance that for the first time since 1947, the Navratri pujas have been held in the historic Sharda Temple in Kashmir this year. Earlier in the year the Chaitra Navratri Puja was observed and now the mantras of the Shardiya Navratri puja resound in the shrine. I was fortunate to reopen the temple on 23rd March 2023 after restoration.This not only signifies the return of peace in the valley but also marks the rekindling of our nation’s spiritual and cultural flame under the leadership of PM @narendramodi Ji,” he posted on X.

Ravinder Pandita, head and founder of Save Sharda Committee said, “The Tweet has certainly encouraged us on the reclaimed project helped by a civil society initiative right on LOC duly supported by locals, district administration, and Indian army.”
