Several Indian-American organizations came together to host a very unique and rare Sarvarth Siddhi Yagna for Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi Jan. 23, 2022, at the Gandhi Temple in Wayne, New Jersey.

The nearly 3 hours long puja was held inside the temple due to freezing temperatures with restricted attendance, observing the Covid protocols like proof of vaccination and social distancing.

Hemant Bhatt said the puja was to honor “the ‘Son of Soil’ Prime Minister Narendra Modiji” and for the welfare and good health of all especially in light of the many lives lost during the pandemic.

The prayers called on Lord Shiva to spread peace around the world and give a long life to Prime Minister Modi, Bhatt said adding that Indians in America have “tremendous love and affection toward the mother country.” He thanked all those who worked to make the event a success, including Parikh Worldwide Media which covered the event.

Anil Bansal, past president of the Federation of Indian Associations of tri-state area, said he was there to pray for the long and healthy life of Modi, adding “that is the reason why we have done this (is) because he is instrumental in reviving Hinduism after 1000 years of incredible suppression of the religion and in the believers of Hinduism.”

Under Modi’s leadership “India will shine and be a superpower in the world,” he added.

Mukund Thaker said, “Today we have a very good opportunity to serve our country and for Narendra bhai. He is really son of India. And we pray to us Lord Shiva give him a long life and very, very, very, very good health,” so that he can serve the country for many more years.

Ankur Vaidya, chairman of FIA, describing it a “very divine, auspicious and holy puja,” said, “I hope that through the puja we pass the blessings to all in attendance and those who watch (through) the medium of ITV and TV Asia. May the Almighty give you health, well-being, peace.”

Vaidya prayed for a Covid-free word and for the long life of Prime Minister Modi.
