The PM Modi cited Puranas which say that as soon as one enters Kashi, one becomes free from all bondage. “Blessings of Lord Vishweshwara, a supernatural energy awakens our inner soul as soon as we come here”.

“ Vishwanath Dham is not just a grand building. This is a symbol of the Sanatan culture of India. It is a symbol of our spiritual soul. This is a symbol of India’s antiquity, traditions, India’s energy and dynamism.”

“Earlier the temple area was only 3000 square feet which has now been enlarged to about 5 lakh square feet. Now 50000 – 75000 devotees can visit the temple and temple premises”

 

Dwelling on the glory of Kashi, the Prime Minister said that Kashi is imperishable and is under the patronage of the Lord Shiva. He expressed his gratitude to every worker in the construction of this grand complex.

 

“For me God comes in the form of people, For me every person is a part of God. I ask three resolutions from the people for the country – cleanliness, creation and continuous efforts for self-reliant India”

PM Modi had his lunch with the workers who worked for the construction of the Dham. The Prime Minister also lauded the artisans, people associated with the construction, administration and those families who had their homes here. Along with this, he also congratulated Chief Minister Shri Yogi Adityanath, to complete the Kashi Vishwanath Dham project.
