Kashi Tamil Sangamam: Union minister greets participants

The attendees of the month-long “Kashi Tamil Sangamam,” who arrived on a special train from Rameswaram (Tamil Nadu) on Friday night, were greeted by Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

As many as 216 people arrived on the train for the Sangamam, officials said. “Tamil Nadu & Kashi have age-old relations, there is no village in Tamil Nadu where Lord Shiva is not worshipped. This is Tamil Kartik month when all worshippers visit Shiv temples,” the union minister said while speaking to the media.
“Tamil Kashi Sangam Yatra has been organised to rejuvenate the relation,” he said.

The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras and Banaras Hindu University (BHU) are jointly organising the event.

The event, which began on November 17 and runs until December 16, aims to rekindle the connection between Kashi and Tamil Nadu. At this month-long conference, hundreds of delegates from Tamil Nadu are anticipated to attend.

“Kashi and Rameswaram are closely related. People can share their knowledge and culture. “To learn more about that antiquated culture,” a participant said.

“Amazing experience. We are very excited to be here. We thank IIT, Madras, IIT-BHU, and the Modi government for arranging everything,” another participant said.
