• A 100-year-old tradition of worshipping Maa Shringar Gauri continued today in Kashi Vishwanath Dham, marking the start of a nine-day Navah Parayan Katha.
• The ritual began with the worship of Maa Shringar Gauri, followed by chants of "Har Har Mahadev" and an atmosphere of religious devotion.
• The All India Sant Samiti performed the ritualistic worship of Maa Shringar Gauri at the western wall section of Vyasji's basement in Gyanvapi.
• Swami Jitendranand Saraswati, National General Secretary of the Sant Samiti, led the worship and performed Abhishek of Baba Vishwanath.
• The tradition includes a nine-day Ramkatha in Kashi Vishwanath Temple, a practice that continued even after the temple's destruction and was never stopped until 1965.
