At a time when citizens across India are expressing solidarity with the Indian Armed Forces amid Operation Sindoor against Pakistan, Jana Sena Party president and Andhra Pradesh deputy chief minister Pawan Kalyan has taken a spiritual path to show his support.
Describing the operation as a “Dharma Yuddha” (righteous war), Pawan Kalyan issued a statement on Friday urging everyone to pray for divine strength and blessings for the soldiers on the front lines, as well as for Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is leading the nation during this critical time.
He emphasized that India’s tri-services possess immense strength and cutting-edge technology capable of restraining enemy forces and defending the nation.
On behalf of the Jana Sena Party, Pawan Kalyan announced that special prayers will be conducted next Tuesday at six sacred Subramanya temples: Tiruttani, Tiruchendur, Palani, Thirupparankundram, Swamimalai, and Pazhamudircholai.
One MLA and groups of Jana Sainiks will be present at each temple to perform the rituals.
Similar prayers will also be held at Kukke and Ghati Subramanya temples in Karnataka, Mopidevi and Bikkavolu temples in Andhra Pradesh, Sri Durga Malleswara Swamy Temple on Indrakeeladri hill, and Sri Puruhutika Devi Temple in Pithapuram.
In addition, special prayers will be conducted this Sunday at the Sri Suryanarayana Swamy Temple in Arasavilli, Srikakulam district, to invoke solar energy for the armed forces.
Pawan Kalyan called for similar rituals in temples across the state and encouraged Christians to offer prayers in churches and Muslims in mosques for the safety of soldiers and civilians in conflict-affected regions such as Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Haryana.
