PM Modi offers prayers at centuries-old Kali temple in Bangladesh

On his second day of his visit to Bangladesh, prime minister Narendra Modi on Sunday met the Matua community members of Orakandi. "I was waiting for this opportunity for many years. When I visited Bangladesh in 2015, I had expressed my desire to visit Orakandi," he said. In his address  PM Modi said that both India and Bangladesh want to see the world progressing through their own progress. "Both nations want to see stability, love, and peace in the world instead of instability, terror, and unrest," he said. India will upgrade one middle school and set up a primary school in Orakandi, PM Modi said.

Matua Mahasangha is a religious group of Hindu Scheduled Caste population that launched a religious reformation movement under Harichand Thakur from Orakandi, where PM Modi visited on Saturday. After Partition, Thakurnagar of North 24 parganas in West Bengal became another centre of this Matua community.Matuas in West Bengal, those who have come to India after partition, make up for a large vote bank in 24 Parganas (North and South) and Nadia.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday offered prayers at the centuries-old Jeshoreshwari Kali temple in Shatkhira district of Bangladesh on the second day of his visit to the nation.The temple, located at a village called Ishwaripur bordering India, is a popular destination for devotees on both sides of the border. According to Hindu mythology, the Jeshoreshwari Kali temple is one of the 51 Shakti Peeths, scared across India and neighbouring countries. Records suggest a Hindu king set up the temple in the 16th century. Modi had asked the Bangladesh government to be allowed to build a community hall in the temple complex. "This community hall will serve a multi-purpose - as a resting place for devotees and as a place for refuge and aid during calamities and natural disasters, especially cyclones. It will be for the service of the people," he said.
