The Jana Sena Party (JSP) will offer special prayers over the next couple of days at six Shanmukha temples to seek divine strength for the Indian Armed Forces and national leadership.
One MLA accompanied by a team of party workers will offer the prayers at Shanmukha (Subrahmanya) shrines in Tiruttani, Tiruchendur, Palani, Tirupparankundram, Swamimalai, and Pazhamudircholai. In addition, prayers will also be offered at the Kukke Subrahmanya and Ghati Subrahmanya temples in Karnataka, Mopidevi and Bikkavolu Subrahmanya temples in Andhra Pradesh, Sri Durga Malleswara temple on Indrakeeladri, and Sri Puruhutika Devi temple in Pithapuram. Special prayers will also be held at Sri Suryanarayana Swamy temple in Arasavalli, Srikakulam district on Sunday.
The party also decided to conduct prayers at various temples across the state for the welfare of the army and the people in war-affected regions like Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Haryana.
JSP president and Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan on Friday said as Operation Sindoor intensifies, every Indian national’s moral support is vital. He requested the people to pray and seek strength and blessings for the armed forces, fighting the enemy on the borders, and our national leadership-led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The armed forces possess superior might and technological prowess capable of containing enemy forces and protecting the nation. Now, is the time for the whole country to unite and pray for their safety, he said.
He also encouraged people of other faiths to pray in their respective places of worship — Christians in churches and Muslims in mosques — for the nation and its protectors.
