In a landmark spiritual announcement for the capital, the Shri Kedarnath Mandir Trust, Delhi, under the leadership of Shri Surendra Rautela, National President of the Trust, unveiled plans for Delhi’s unique Shiv Mahapuran Katha, a seven-day grand celebration dedicated to Lord Shiva.

The announcement was made at a press conference held at New Maharashtra Sadan, K.G. Marg, New Delhi, in the presence of senior media representatives, spiritual followers, and members of the organising committee.
Addressing the gathering, Swami Kailashanand Giri Ji Maharaj said, “The Shiv Mahapuran Katha is not just a narration of divine stories, but a path to awakening one’s inner consciousness.
