Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis cleans Mumbai’s Mumbadevi temple premises ahead of Pran Pratishtha event in Ayodhya

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis joined the cleanliness drive and helped clean the Mumbadevi temple premises in Mumbai in response to the Prime Minister’s request that temples be cleaned. When the Maharashtra deputy chief minister arrived at Mumbadevi temple in the morning, he cleaned the floor.

“Our Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, has urged everyone to clean the temples across the country before the Pran Pratishtha in Ayodhya. Under the same initiative, we too did a cleanliness drive at our Mumbai’s deity, Mumbadevi temple. I think this is a really good initiative and people of all religions should go to their places of faith and undertake this cleanliness drive,” said Fadnavis.

Anurag Thakur, the Union Minister, cleaned the Hanuman Temple’s grounds earlier in the day in Delhi’s Connaught Place (CP). As part of the cleanliness campaign, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh cleaned the Hanuman Temple in Lucknow.

“Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi has called upon all the countrymen to contribute towards cleanliness in the temples around them. Today, I went to Hanuman Setu temple in Lucknow and did Shramdaan under #SwachhTeerth campaign and got the privilege of serving Hanumanji,” the Defence Minister said in a post on ‘X’.
On Sunday, BJP president JP Nadda launched a nationwide cleanliness drive at temples. The initiative was launched focusing on temples and will continue until January 22, the day of the Pran Pratishtha of Ram Lala at the Ayodhya Ram temple.
