Hyderabad/Bhubaneswar: On Saturday, Odisha's Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi visited the 'Statue of Equality' in Hyderabad, where he offered prayers to the revered figure Ramanujacharya.

According to an official announcement from the Chief Minister's Office, Majhi was joined by Odisha's Industries Minister, Sampad Chandra Swain, as they paid their respects to the influential philosopher, saint, and social reformer.

During his visit, the Chief Minister engaged in discussions with Sri Sri Tridandi Chinna Srimanta Narayana Ramanuja Jeeyar Swamiji, focusing on India's rich spiritual traditions, the philosophy of inclusivity, and the significance of Ramanujacharya's teachings in today's world.
