On Friday, Chief Minister Dhami attended the *Peetham Sthapana Mahotsav* program hosted by the Kalyanika Himalaya Devsthanam Trust at Dol Ashram. During the event, the Chief Minister performed the worship of 1,100 young girls (*Kanyas*) and subsequently performed the *Abhishek* (ritual anointing) and *Puja* (worship) of Goddess Rajeshwari. He also offered prayers for the happiness and prosperity of both the state and the nation.
The Chief Minister observed the *Shri Yantra* installed within the Dol Ashram complex, as well as the various spiritual activities being conducted there. CM Dhami remarked that beholding the world’s largest *Shri Yantra*—which is established at this site—evokes a profound and unique spiritual experience. He noted that, thanks to the spiritual practice (*Sadhana*) and ascetic penance (*Tapasya*) of Baba Kalyandas, this place has today carved out a distinct identity for itself on the global stage.
The Chief Minister stated that this site has emerged as a pivotal hub for the dissemination of spiritual consciousness. Furthermore, he lauded the efforts being undertaken by Baba Kalyandas to propagate spiritual awareness on a global scale. CM Dhami observed that the Ashram has evolved into a prominent center of religious faith, spiritual practice, and cultural consciousness, where a multitude of devotees arrive to partake in spiritual experiences.
Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami affirmed that the state government is making continuous efforts to promote spiritual tourism. He noted that the year-on-year increase in the number of devotees undertaking the *Char Dham Yatra* is a direct result of the improved arrangements and facilities being developed within the state.
