No fair, only simple religious ceremony this time in Kurukshetra

Kurukshetra : A simple religious ceremony was held on the banks of the Brahma Sarovar here on Sunday as the administration had decided not to hold a fair this time on the occasion of solar eclipse amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The holy city had been placed under curfew till 4 pm on Sunday to prevent people from gathering on the banks of sacred sarovars in this district for taking a dip or holding any rituals on the occasion of solar eclipse.
According to Hindu beliefs, a bath in the holy tanks at Kurukshetra during solar eclipse is considered auspicious.
A simple religious ceremony on the occasion of solar eclipse was held, in which only a few seers were present.
The seers reached holy Brahma Sarovar in the morning and a 'havan' was also performed. Rituals were held at the Ganga Ghat area of Brahma Sarovar.
