Chadar offered on behalf of PM at Chishti’s Dargah

A ‘Chadar’ on behalf of Prime Minister Narendra Modi was on Sunday offered at the dargah of Sufi saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti here by Union Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi who asserted that the government was committed to ensure development of every section including minorities.

Naqvi read out the Prime Minister's message in which he greeted the devotees of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti in India and abroad on the occasion of 804th Urs. Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti was an amazing example of our country's great Sufi traditions. Garib Nawaz considered service to the humanity as best form of 'Ibaadat' (worship), it is a source of inspiration for us even today, the message read.

Modi also wished that annual Urs brings peace and happiness across the world.

Thousands of pilgrims have thronged Ajmer for the 804th Urs of Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti, revered equally by Hindus and Muslims around the world.  

Naqvi said Chisti's message is a strong weapon to protect human values and defeat nefarious designs of terror forces.

“We will have to strengthen this social base of harmony and unity and we can defeat the forces, who are engaged in the conspiracy to create divide and conflict in the society, only with the help of this strength of harmony and unity in the society,” Naqvi said.

While asserting that patriotism is in the DNA of every Indian and they are passionate about protecting the country's pride, Naqvi said terrorism and radicalism has failed to establish its roots in the country because of its communal harmony.
