Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel attended a tribute meeting organized at the Town Hall on Saturday to pay homage to Brahmalin Jagatguru Shankaracharya Dwi Peethadheeshwar Swami Swaroopanand Saraswati Maharaj. In the tribute meeting, swasti reading and peace recitation were done while paying homage to Brahmalin Shankaracharya. Various citizens including the Chief Minister paid homage in the meeting. On this occasion, the Chief Minister said that Swaroopanand Saraswati was a great personality of Maharaj ji, his words are like nectar for all of us. We were all born in his era, it is the fortune of all of us. Let us all walk on the path shown by him, this will be a true tribute to him.
Recalling the old memories, Chief Minister Shri Bhupesh Baghel said that whenever Maharaj Ji used to come to Chhattisgarh, he used to take the meritorious benefit of his darshan. He devoted his whole life to religion and society. Shankaracharya ji was meritorious since childhood and had memorized all religious texts. He also actively participated in the freedom movement, also fought with the British. I am fortunate that when I was the revenue minister, land was allotted for his ashram in Chhattisgarh under my signature, then when our government came, he handed over a free land lease for the ashram.
Minister Shri Premsai Singh Tekam, Minister Shri Kawasi Lakhma, Chairman of Chhattisgarh Cow Service Commission Rajeshree Mahant Ramsunder Das, MLA Shri Kuldeep Juneja, MLA Shri Brijmohan Agrawal and other dignitaries were present in the tribute meeting.
