CM will join the yatra after two years
The Bhagwan Narsingh Shobhayatra, which started from the Ghantaghar on the day of Holi on behalf of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, was started by Nanaji Deshmukh, the Pracharak of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh during his Gorakhpur stay in 1944. The tradition of celebrating Holi with the ashes of Holikadahan in Gorakhnath temple continued long before this. Yogi Adityanath is continuously participating in this procession from 1996 to 2019. In the year 2020 and the year 2021, they did not join to save the public from the spread of the global disease corona infection. This is the reason that this time there is a lot of enthusiasm among the people.
The procession will come out from these routes
The procession revolves around 8 kms. The Shobha Yatra will leave Ghantaghar and go back to Clock tower via Madrasa Chowk, Laldiggi, Mirzapur, Ghasi Katra, Jafra Bazar, Charan Lal Chowk, Aryanagar, Bakshipur, Nakhas Chowk, Reti Chowk.
