Indraj stated that under the leadership of Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, unprecedented and historic arrangements have been made for this year’s Kanwar Yatra.

He mentioned that Delhi has transformed into a city immersed in devotion to Lord Shiva. Inspired by the Jyotirlingas, 17 grand welcome gates have been erected at various border points and key locations.

According to the minister, a total of 374 Kanwar camps have been set up across Delhi — more than double the number from last year. These camps are well-equipped with facilities for accommodation, drinking water, food, and electricity.

He further noted that the number of Kanwar pilgrims passing through and departing from Delhi is in the millions. The yatra is a deeply spiritual experience, and the people of the national capital are contributing to its success through their dedicated service and cooperation with the devotees.
