The Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today paid visit to Somnath Temple in Gujarat after conclusion of Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj.
In separate posts on X, he wrote:
“I had decided that after the Maha Kumbh at Prayagraj, I would go to Somnath, which is the first among the 12 Jyotirlingas.
Today, I felt blessed to have prayed at the Somnath Mandir. I prayed for the prosperity and good health of every Indian. This Temple manifests the timeless heritage and courage of our culture.”
“प्रयागराज में एकता का महाकुंभ, करोड़ों देशवासियों के प्रयास से संपन्न हुआ। मैंने एक सेवक की भांति अंतर्मन में संकल्प लिया था कि महाकुंभ के उपरांत द्वादश ज्योतिर्लिंग में से प्रथम ज्योतिर्लिंग श्री सोमनाथ का पूजन-अर्चन करूंगा।
आज सोमनाथ दादा की कृपा से वह संकल्प पूरा हुआ है। मैंने सभी देशवासियों की ओर से एकता के महाकुंभ की सफल सिद्धि को श्री सोमनाथ भगवान के चरणों में समर्पित किया। इस दौरान मैंने हर देशवासी के स्वास्थ्य एवं समृद्धि की कामना भी की।”
