The 13th Annual Murti Sthapana Diwas of Chandi Mata Temple, Rajpura Shakti Nagar, was celebrated with traditional religious fervour and spiritual devotion. A large number of devotees participated in the sacred event, which began with Vedic rituals and culminated in a grand Maha Aarti and langar for all attendees. Mahant Sunil Bitta, the head priest and caretaker of the temple, led the rituals and extended blessings to the devotees.

J&K BJP President and former Minister, Sat Sharma, was the chief guest on the occasion. He paid obeisance at the temple and prayed for peace, prosperity, and unity among nationalist forces in Jammu and Kashmir and the entire country. He emphasized that the cultural and spiritual awakening happening across the nation is a reflection of the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, under whose leadership India is steadily moving towards becoming a Vishwaguru (global leader).
