PM Modi takes holy dip in 'Agni theerth' beach; prays in TN temples

IndiaTimes Saturday, 20 January 2024
Extending his visits to temples in the south with a Ramayana connect, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday worshipped in the Sri Ranganathaswamy and Ramanathaswamy temples in Tamil Nadu and took a holy dip at the Rameswaram 'Angi theerth' beach. His visit to the Vaishnavite and Saivite shrines comes just two days ahead of the 'Pran Pratishtha' (consecration) of the grand Ram Temple at the Lord's birthplace Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh. Modi had earlier in the week offered prayers at temples in Andhra Pradesh and Kerala.
