In a ceremonial event imbued with spiritual significance, India’s High Commisioner to Sri Lanka, Santosh Jha, alongside Members of Parliament and other dignitaries, inaugurated the Rath Yatra of Holy Saryu Water from Mayurapathi Sri Badrakali Amman Kovil.

This event, resonating with ancient traditions and divine reverence, symbolises the deep-rooted cultural ties between India and Sri Lanka. The Rath Yatra, a procession of spiritual significance, commenced amidst chants and hymns, evoking blessings for the success and sanctity of the endeavour.
“Auspicious beginnings. A rath yatra of holy Saryu water of Ayodhya was flagged off from Mayurapathi Sri Badrakali Amman Kovil, Colombo by High Commissioner Santosh Jha, MPs & other dignitaries. This holy water will be used for kumbhabhishekam of Seetha Amman temple at Seetha Eliya,” said Indian High Commission in Sri Lanka.
