Respected Members,

Namaskar,

Mela Kheer Bhawani known as Jyesth Ashtami which falls in the month of Jyestha could not be visited by the masses due to militancy threat. About 30% of the population among the Kashmiri Hindus could make it to visit Mata Kheer Bhawani at Tulmul, Kashmir. Prayers and chanting of mantras continued as usual with the bhajans praising the Almighty Matas blessings and her kindness.

It is said after Ravana was set to rest by Lord Rama Mata Shama had no desire to live in the sinful country Sri Lanka. Mahavir Hanuman became Mata's Chariot and asked him to take her to Kahysap Rishi, Sati Desh. The Divine Mata visited many places in Satisar Desh and finally selected a place to live in known as "Tulmulla". It is also said that Mata Shama is the only Isht Devi who is vegetarian. Thereafter this day is called as Zeeth Ashtami. People thronged to have the darshan of Mata Kheer Bhawani at Shalimar Garden were great hawan was performed. At other places of J&K and also in Delhi wherever the Temple have been constructed viz. Gurgaon, Patparganj etc. also paid their respects and offerings.

Protest at Jantar Mantar

Kashmiri Samiti Delhi held a protest at Jantar Mantar for continue genocide of Kashmiri Pandits in the valley. During the last one month about 9 Kashmiri Hindus were brutally killed by the militants in the valley. The genocide of Kashmiri Hindus still continued unabated and the Government not so far taken any concrete action against the killers. The solution to the genocide of Kashmiri Hindus is to create a separate home land for the Kashmiri Hindus which shall be governed by the Centre directly. (protests pics on page 8).
