Varanasi: Ravidas Temple at the birthplace of Mystic Poet-Saint and Dalit Icon Sant Ravidas in Varanasi is ready to play the role of political power plants in polls, especially Uttar Pradesh and Punjab.
This temple has monopolized the headlines because the election commission rescheduled the date of Punjab voting from February 14 to 20 February when lakh swelling came to pay respect for Ravidas Jayanti and would not be able to give their voices.
The temple at Seer Gowardhanpur, meanwhile, was ready for a big celebration on February 16 amid the Covid protocol.
The toughness of the temple said it had not invited any politicians this time, but the ‘good’ steps likely – like before the 2019 general election.
Shri Teacher Ravidas Janam Asthan Charitable Trust Saroa and Temple Manager Ranvir Singh said, “Trust Chairman Sant Niranjan Das Will arrive at a special train with pilgrims on February 14 after the celebration of Ravidas Jayanti will begin.
Because international flights are still canceled, there are no followers of NRI that will be there.
“” Because the code behavior code already exists, we have not invited any politicians, though They are free to come and offer prayer voluntarily, “Saroa added.
A city tent appears near the temple every year to accommodate pilgrims.
DM Kaushal Raj Sharma said, “Just as in Magh Mela in Prayagraj, the city of Tent has been allowed to Ravidas Jayanti.
This will have the capacity to accommodate 30,000 people but only 15,000 will be permitted because of Covid norms.”
