Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Madhya Pradesh BJP President VD Sharma visited Chhatarpur on Wednesday noon to inspect the site ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit.

PM Modi will attend the foundation laying ceremony of a cancer hospital at Bageshwar Dham premises on February 23.

During the visit, VD Sharma paid obeisance to Bageshwar Dham and had a discussion with the head priest Pandit Dhirendra Krishna Shastri.

The discussion centered around preparations of the event and how it will be organized. Sharma also interacted with the officers and gave necessary directions to them. SP, Collector and local elected representatives like MLA were also present on the site.

This is for the first time that PM Modi will visit Bageshwar Dham-- which has received huge popularity in last few years. Here, the head priest , Pandit Dhirendra Krishna Shastri miraculously predicts and writes problems of people on a chit without any interaction with the concerned person. He is known to suggest remedies to help people with those problems

Shastri has crores of followers across the country. Last year in November, he held a 9-day 'Hindu Jodo Yatra' covering 160 kilometres on foot across MP and UP. The yatra aimed to unite Hindus and erase lines of caste.
