Udupi: Nirmala takes darshan of Sri Krishna without disturbing devotee, video goes viral


Daijiworld Media Network - Udupi (RJP)

Udupi, Mar 27: Defence minister Nirmala Sitharaman was in city on Tuesday, March 26. When she visited the famous Sri Krishna Temple, she waited for a devotee to finish his prayers. She did not disturb him , but waited patiently. This video has gone viral now and many people have appreciated her gesture.

Though Nirmala Sitharaman waiting for the devotee to go after his prayers looks simple, it is not a common practice observed by the ministers these days. That too Union ministers who have the higher security, seldom wait for others.

The video, which has gone viral, has been appreciated by many people. The devotee here in the video is unaware that a minister is waiting behind him. 

Local MLA Raghupati Bhat and MP Shobha Karandlaje were accompanying the defence minister.

    First of all politicians visiting temples during election season itself is for publicity.
    In addition such small gestures in front of the press and public is a double damaka!
    As someone rightly said why do politicians pray in public during election season???
    If one really wants to pray you can do the same at home without any publicity.

    The legend says that Kanaka Dasa was a poet, philosopher, musician and composer from modern Karnataka when denied permission due to his 'low caste by Brahmin priest, Kanakadasa was outside the temple for days waiting to see Lord Krishna and waiting to be let into the temple. It is believed that the during those days, Kanaka was not allowed to have darshan of Lord Krishna, so with devotion when he sang kirthanas for his dear Lord, the temple wall fell down and the deity of Lord Krishna turned around and there was a crack in the outer walls of the temple through which the ardent devotee of Krishna, Kanakadasa was able to see his Lord.

    During the time of standoff with Chinese soldiers occupied Indian sovereign land of Arunachal Pradesh, instead of strong diplomatic protest she was teaching 'Namaste'. Now Lok Sabha election fast approaching this 'Namaste' aunty is again in action.

    Let us not forget Bellary Reddy's the sponsors of debut BJP's 'operation Kamala' government are also devoted followers of 'Lord Tirumala' and donate Rs 42 crown from illicit looted money. They also demolished 200 years old tribal worshipped Sunkulamma temple.

    Even since the curse of the goddess cost the Reddy brothers.

    Being Defence Minister Nirmala Starman had till now not disclosed the truth behind 'Rafale Jet' scam. If she really worships 'Bharat Mata' and needs the blessing of Lord Krishna let her say the truth in front of God.
    If Lord can be pleased with Kanaka Dasa, then Nirmala will also be blessed.
    Jai Hind

    it's common knowledge when a high-risk minister visits any place no one is allowed to move around. here too when the minister is likely to visit the temple, does the security allow such a lapse?

    What is the great thing she has made...????? It is normal to do Darshan in line. She is not on official duty. Let her wait a little for darshan.

    Consider how the Karnataka Minister got the police man suspended for stopping the car for half a minute to ensure that the number of people is as per the rule. He had also done similar thing during Siddaganga sree. If you have already decided oppose a person or party, you will always find some reason.
