Kedarnath, May 18: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is on a two-day visit to Uttarakhand, was photographed meditating in a holy cave near Kedarnath. Earlier today, the prime minister also offered his prayers at the Kedarnath temple. He is also set to visit the Badrinath shrine tomorrow before heading back to Delhi in the afternoon.

In pictures shared by the BJP Uttarakhand handle on Twitter, PM Modi, 68, is seen meditating in a cave seated on a bed and propped up by a pillow, dressed in saffron robes. Another picture shows the prime minister folding his hands and bowing in the cave.

Earlier in the day, the prime minister also reviewed the Kedarnath Development Project, undertaken after floods in 2013 ravaged the state. The state’s BJP handle also shared a video of PM Modi, dressed in traditional pahari clothes speaking to officials about the ongoing project.

The Himalayan shrine, dedicated to Lord Shiva, has been visited multiple times by PM Modi during his term as prime minister.

The Kedarnath temple in Rudraprayag district reopened earlier this month to pilgrims after a six-month-long winter break.
