Expressing his thoughts, Sharma remarked, “Mahakumbh embodies our heritage and culture. It is a legacy from our ancestors and saints, grounded in astronomical calculations. We are privileged to witness such a historic event, which gathers millions of devotees—an occurrence unique to India.”

He also expressed his gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for the impressive arrangements, highlighting that the massive turnout of devotees from within India and overseas underscores the profound spiritual faith and resilience of the country.

During the Cabinet meeting chaired by CM Bhajanlal Sharma, several vital decisions concerning the Devasthan Department were approved, including the doubling of the offering amount for temple rituals, raising the honorarium for part-time priests to Rs 7,500 per month, and allocating funds for the renovation of temples overseen by the Devasthan Department, both inside and outside Rajasthan.

Reflecting on the recent election results in Delhi, Sharma stated, “The people of India have steadfast faith in Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The voters in Delhi recognize that only a double-engine government can facilitate true development, which is why they have given the BJP a historic mandate.”

The event was attended by various dignitaries, including Rajasthan Assembly Speaker Vasudev Devnani, Deputy Chief Minister Diya Kumari, Dr. Premchand Bairwa, along with several ministers, MPs, and MLAs.

National: One year after the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, the nation remembers the 26 people who lost their lives. The attack took place on April 22 at Baisaran, a popular tourist spot.

At first, reports said only five people were injured. Later, it became clear that it was one of the worst terror attacks in the region in decades. Terrorists came out of the forest and opened fire on tourists.

Survivors said the attackers separated men from women and children. They then shot the men at close range. Many victims were reportedly targeted after being asked about their religion.

A heartbreaking image of Himanshi Narwal sitting beside her husband’s body became a symbol of the tragedy. Her husband, a naval officer, was among those killed.

The group The Resistance front, linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, claimed responsibility. The case was investigated by the National Investigation Agency.

After months of tracking, security forces launched Operation Mahadev. On July 28, 2025, all three terrorists were killed after a long search operation.

The attack remains a painful memory and a reminder of the need for strong security.
