The atmosphere resonated with the chant of “Swamiye Sharanam Ayyappa,” transforming the surroundings into a space of spiritual energy, discipline, and collective faith.

Speaking on the occasion, the Deputy Commissioner said that such spiritual traditions, when observed collectively, strengthen social harmony and promote values of tolerance, equality, and mutual respect. He noted that the Ayyappa tradition conveys a powerful message of unity beyond social divisions and inspires disciplined living rooted in ethical values.
A large number of devotees, temple committee members, and local residents attended the programme, which concluded in a peaceful and devotional atmosphere, reinforcing the spirit of unity and shared faith.
