“We pray to Maa Kushmanda and seek her blessings for our various endeavours. Here is a Stuti dedicated to her,” Modi tweeted in English alongside another tweet in Hindi in which he said, “During Navratra Goddess Skandamata is worshipped.

The Prime Minister Office tweeting about PM Modi’s engagement said, “The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has  sought blessings of Maa Kushmanda and Maa Skandmata for the devotees during Navratri and shared recital of prayers (stuti) of the Goddesses.”

According to the pundits well versed in the Hindu rituals, this year’s Navaratra has been curtailed by a day due to the worshipping of Maa Kushmanda and Maa Skandmata falling on the same day today. As a result, now on the ninth and last day of the Navratra ‘Kanya Pujan’ will be held.
