Prime Minister Narendra Modi took an adventurous trip to Dwaraka, a historic city submerged under water on Sunday. The prime minister took a scuba-diving trip to the place connected with Lord Krishna and offered peacock feathers as homage at the site.
The prime minister tweeted, “To pray in the city of Dwarka, which is immersed in the waters, was a very divine experience. I felt connected to an ancient era of spiritual grandeur and timeless devotion. May Bhagwan Shri Krishna bless us all.”
