Amit Shah offers prayers to Goddess Bhavatarini for "overall welfare of India under PM Narendra Modi"

Kolkata, Nov 6 (UNI) Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday offered a special puja at the Dakshineswar Kali Temple and said his prayers to the Goddess Bhavatarini were for overall welfare of India under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
" Bengal is the land of many Addhatik people like Swami Vivekananda and Rishi Arabinda and my appeal to the people of the state is to remember saintly men and follow them for restoration of the glorious days," Mr Shah told the waiting media perons after emerging out of the main temple,
which was built by Rani Rashmoni in 1855 and Sri Ramakirshna was one of the main priests in the 19th century.
On his third consecutive day in West Bengal, Mr Shah began his day's work by offering prayers to the Goddess Kali and later said whenever he finds time during his visits to Kolkata, he prefers to offer prayers to Goddess Bhavatrarini at Dakshineswar.
He said he prayed to the Goddess that India became the best place in the world and for the overall welfare of the country.
Mr Shah said Bengal is the land of many great people and "I would appeal to the people of the state to follow their path and restore the glorious days."
