President Ram Nath Kovind, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and many leading lights of the country will be attending the mega event ‘Vedic Yagya’ where over 1,100 priests will chant hymns. One of its kind event will be held between March 18 and 25 outside the sprawling lawns of Red Fort.
The 17th century Mughal monument, will host a week- long ‘Vedic yagya’ in March to blunt “conspiracies” hatched by the country's “inimical forces”, BJP MP Maheish Girri said on Monday. The MP said “soil and water” from Doklam, where troops of India and China were locked in a standoff, and Poonch, located near the line of Control (loC), will be used in raising the structures in the event.
