Ashoknagar (Madhya Pradesh), March 19 (NationPress) The Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, Dr. Mohan Yadav, recently concluded a visit to the esteemed Maa Janaki Temple, commonly referred to as Karila Dham, and encountered an unforeseen circumstance. While he was speaking to the media after descending the temple's staircase, the unimaginable occurred—the staircase collapsed under the crowd's combined weight.
A wave of astonishment swept through the audience, but thankfully, no injuries were reported from the incident.
A video capturing the event quickly gained popularity on social media platforms. The CM and his entourage swiftly regained their composure, dismissing the episode as an unexpected twist to their spiritual journey. Following the brief disruption, the program proceeded without interruption.
The Chief Minister took to the stage alongside the public near the temple, where local leaders shared an ambitious vision for the region. Among their proposals was the transformation of Mata Janaki Dham into a magnificent cultural hub, named Karila Lok, equipped with modern amenities such as a large hotel, a helipad, and travel-related facilities.
They also advocated for stricter regulations, including a prohibition on liquor sales in the vicinity of the temple to uphold the sanctity of the site. The timing of the CM's visit aligned with the lively three-day Rangpanchami fair taking place in the area.
Arriving at approximately 11:40 a.m., Dr. Yadav ensured he engaged with the festivities. His attendance was marked by various rituals, including prayers at the temple and addressing the gathering of devotees. Staying true to his commitment to support local customs, he announced an additional grant of Rs 1 crore for the fair.
A significant highlight of the fair was the reopening of a historic cave, believed to be the birthplace of Luv and Kush, the sons of Lord Ram, after being closed for a year. Legend has it that they were born on Rangpanchami at Maharshi Valmiki’s ashram, which is also situated there.
Devotees flocked to the cave, which would remain accessible for 24 hours before being sealed once again.
