Having achieved a landslide victory in the recent assembly elections, Telangana chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is now planning to perform a mega “homam” as a thanksgiving to the divine forces that blessed him with such a huge success.
According to official sources, KCR is going to form a five-day Maha Rudhra Sahitha Sahasra Maha Chandi Yagam will be held at the farmhouse of TRS president at Erravelli village in Siddipet district in the last week of January – most probably from January 21 to 25.
Though sources say KCR is performing Yagnam for the welfare of the people and his future efforts to develop the state, it is also learnt KCR has kept in mind his plans to form federal front at the national level.
Before the elections, too, KCR performed “Raja Syamala Yagam” at his farm house under the guidance of Sri Visakha Sarada Peetham seer Swamy Swaroopanandendra for the victory of the party in the elections.
The Swamy suggested that after the elections, too, he should perform the yagam for the benefit of the people and also to thank the gods.
The proposed Sahasra Maha Chandi Yagam will be held under the auspices of Sringeri Sarada Peetham seer Jagadguru Bharati Teertha Swamy.
More than 200 Ritwikcs (priests who perform the yagam) would take part in the ritual, which involves recitation of 1000 different hymns praising Lord Shiva and Goddess Durga.
