Thousands of Devotees Join Simhachalam Giripradakshina as Pushpa Prachara Ratham Begins

Thousands of devotees thronged the Simhachalam hill shrine to participate in the sacred Giripradakshina, one of the temple's most significant annual spiritual events. The atmosphere turned devotional as devotees walked along the hill route chanting the name of Lord Govinda with great enthusiasm.

The annual Pushpa Prachara Ratham Yatra was ceremonially flagged off by Goa Governor Ashok Gajapathi Raju. Devotees accompanied the decorated chariot throughout the procession, while temple authorities made extensive arrangements to ensure the smooth conduct of the yatra and the safety of pilgrims.
