For the first time in 72 years, the Durga Puja was held in the Sharda bench of the POK

New Delhi, Oct 8, 2019, Tuesday

For the first time since the independence of the country, an Indian couple worshiped Aditya Shakti in the Sharda bench in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. An Indian couple from Hong Kong had arrived at Sarada's back.

However, in the past, the Pakistani military prevented the two. But after interrogation, he let the couple back to Sharda. KP Venkataraman and his wife, Sujata, worshiped Aditya Shakti in Sharda bench for the first time in the last 72 years.

Before reaching here, the couple had been patient for days for obtaining a No Objection Certificate from the Pakistani government and the military. Today, Sharda Peeth, which has become ruins, was once a very powerful force. Venkataraman said that we recently got this information back on social media. We had received enough information from a Kashmir resident and this back knowledgeable Ravindra Pandit that we reached here and worshiped Mataji.

The couple is said to have seen all the backs of the tribe long ago.
