Kanwar Yatra 2024: India’s Sacred Steps…. Understanding the Landscape with Devotion

The annual Kanwar Yatra, a Hindu pilgrimage dedicated to Lord Shiva, begins as millions of devotees embark on a sacred journey across central India. Kanwariyas, as the pilgrims are known, travel on foot to collect holy water from the Ganges River, carrying it back to local Shiva temples. This month-long event, concentrated in states like Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Uttar Pradesh, sees devotees seeking blessings for health, prosperity, and spiritual purification through their arduous trek and ritualistic offerings. #KanwarYatra #Kanwar2024 #KanwarHaridwar #Chhatisgarh #Oneindia #Oneindianews ~PR.320~HT.125~HT.318~ED.103~

Congress leaders condemned the action as divisive and potentially contemptuous of the Supreme Court's stance on religious identity displays. #KanwarYatra #Kanwariyas #KanwarRoute #UttarakhandGovernment #Dhami #Pushkarsinghdhami #Congress #Muslims #Mosques #Indianews #Oneindia# #Oneindianews ~PR.320~ED.102~HT.334~
