Free stay for 4,000 Vaishno Devi pilgrims soon
Jammu and Kashmir Governor Satya Pal Malik on Saturday laid the foundation stone of a building that would provide free accommodation daily to 4,000 pilgrims visiting the Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine.
To add additional facilities for meeting the accommodation needs of the pilgrims who visit the Mata Vaishno Devi shrine, the Governor laid the foundation stone for construction of a new Durga Bhavan in the Bhavan area, a statement by the Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board, headed by the Governor, said.
The Governor electronically launched the work on the five-storey building on the sidelines of the 64th meeting of the Shrine Board here at the Raj Bhavan.
The building is estimated to cost around Rs 50 crore and will provide free accommodation to around 4,000 pilgrims every day. It will have adequate facilities such as lockers, toilets, blankets, ready-to-eat snacks and beverages as well as four elevators, the statement said.
The new earthquake resistant building will be the largest of the existing buildings in the Bhavan area and will be almost twice the size of the old Durga Bhavan.
Its terrace will be covered with an aesthetically designed roof as an additional resting place.
Chaitra Navratri 2022 begins on the first day of the Hindu month (lunar-solar calendar) Chaitra. It marks the end of spring season and beginning of summer season, and that’s why it is also known as Vasant Navratri. The nine-day-long festival has already started from April 2. Tomorrow, that is April 3, is the second day of Chaitra Navratri, and Goddess Brahmacharini is worshipped on the second day of the holy festival.
Chaitra Navratri 2022 Day 2: Maa Brahmacharini Significance
Maa Brahmacharini is known for her pure and sincere devotion and determination. According to the drik panchang, Goddess Parvati took birth at the home of Daksha Prajapati. In this form, the Goddess Parvati was a great Sati and her unmarried form is worshipped as Goddess Brahmacharini. It is also believed that Lord Mangal, the provider of all fortunes, is governed by Goddess Brahmacharini. She did severe penance to get Lord Shiva as her husband and performed hard austerity. Due to this, she was called Brahmacharini. According to Hindu mythologies, Goddess Brahmacharini was on a diet of Bilva leaves for 3000 years while she prayed to Lord Shankar. Later, she even stopped eating Bilva leaves and continued her penance without any food and water.
