Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath participated in the Sant Samagam organised in Ladpur village located in Kotkasim tehsil of Alwar district in Rajasthan on Sunday. During this time, he also took part in the large ‘Tritiya Aathman’ bhandara organised at the renowned Somanath temple.

Greeting all the saints who had come from all over the country, the chief minister said, “The Nath sect is an important sect of India’s Sanatan Dharma. All our programmes are dedicated to the revered deities, sages, ascetics and saints. Sanatan Dharma and India complement each other. If India becomes strong, then Sanatan Dharma will also prosper.”

Yogi Adityanath said, “It is my privilege to participate in the bhandara organised on the occasion of the 24 death anniversary of saint Somanath, in this village of Ladpur, which is known as the sacred place of initiation of Maharaj Bhartrihari in the Nath sect.”

He mentioned that the dedicated efforts and sacrifices of saints contribute to strengthening Sanatan Dharma and India.

“Yogi Khetanath Maharaj and his disciple Mahant Somanath devoted their entire lives to welfare activities. Their devotion was to the Sanatan Dharma and its followers. Rajasthan is a land of devotion and power. In the Aravalli hills, many saints practiced for the welfare of society,” he remarked.

Yogi Adityanath also congratulated all the devotees from Tijara present at the conference for ensuring the victory of Mahant Balaknath in the assembly elections.

On this occasion, he also unveiled the statues of Baba Abhaynath and Baba Kartarpuri.

A large number of saints and devotees associated with the Shaddarshan sect, including Rajasthan’s Minister of Environment and Forest Sanjay Sharma and Tijara MLA Baba Balaknath, were present.
