A day after he visited the Kashi Vishwanath temple here, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said offering prayers at the ancient shrine always gives him great satisfaction.

In a post on X, Modi also shared a video of his visit to the temple on Saturday. In the video, he is seen taking part in a puja at the temple.

”The mind always gets great satisfaction after offering prayers at the grand and divine Shri Kashi Vishwanath temple in Varanasi. Prayed to Baba Vishwanath for the happiness, good fortune and health of my family members across the country. Har Har Mahadev,” he said in his post in Hindi.

Modi arrived in his parliamentary constituency to a rousing reception on Saturday, days after the BJP fielded him from the seat for a third time. He also held a 28-km-long roadshow here.

On Sunday, the prime minister will leave for Azamgarh from Bareka helipad at around 10 am and return around 2 pm here. Later, he will leave for New Delhi from Babatpur airport.
