J-K: Massive Shobha Yatra held in Udhampur district ahead of Lord Parshuram Jayanti

Jammu & Kashmir : Udhampur witnessed a grand spectacle on Sunday as a massive Shobha Yatra was held in the district ahead of the upcoming Lord Parshuram Jayanti.


The procession, organised by the Yuva Parshuram Dal was a vibrant display of religious devotion that commenced at the Kargil Hanuman Temple in Udhampur.


A large crowd, including women, children, and prominent citizens, thronged the streets to participate in the grand yatra.


Chants and slogans praising Lord Parshuram resonated throughout the city as the procession weaved its way through Domail, Dhar Road, and various markets, finally culminating at Sallain Talab, Udhampur.


The presence of revered Saint Swami Subhash Shastri, along with his followers and heads of other religious organizations, further elevated the spiritual significance of the event.


Parshuram Jayanti is celebrated to honour the birth of Lord Parshuram, who is revered for his exceptional skills in warfare and archery. He is also known for his devotion to his father and his role in upholding dharma.


Lord Parashurama was born in Vaishakh, the second month of the Hindu calendar, on the third day of Shukla Paksha, the waxing phase of the moon.


His birthday is also celebrated as the holiday Akshaya Tritiya, also known as Parshuram Jayanti, and typically occurs in late April or early May.
