Sambhal (UP), March 5 A 'yagya' (a sacred Hindu Vedic ritual involving offerings to a consecrated fire) was held in Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh, on Thursday to celebrate Israel's victory in the ongoing conflict in West Asia.
Kailash Chandra Gupta, the district president of the Sanatan Seva Sangh, told reporters, "Today, a 'yagya' was performed for the complete eradication of terrorism, the establishment of peace in the world, and for the long life of Israel's Prime Minister, Netanyahu."
He also said that through the 'yagya', they want to convey the message that peace should be established in the world, and Israel should be victorious.
Manish Sharma, an official of the Sanatan Seva Sangh, said the 'yagya' was performed for world peace, because India's tradition has been that of 'Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah' (May everyone be happy).
