Modi’s gifted crown from Bangladesh’s Jeshoreshwari Temple
A crown belonging to Goddess Kali, which was gifted by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in March 2021, has been stolen from the Jeshoreshwari Temple in Satkhira, Bangladesh.
The silver and gold-plated crown was reported missing on Thursday afternoon, shortly after the temple priest completed the day’s worship.
Cleaning staff discovered the absence of the crown from the deity’s head during their routine duties.
The crown holds significant cultural and religious value, as the Jeshoreshwari Temple is recognized as one of the 51 Shakti Peethas in Hindu mythology.
The temple, located in Ishwaripur, Satkhira, was originally constructed in the 12th century and has undergone several renovations over the centuries.
