Amit Shah

The world famous Saibaba Temple at Shirdi in Ahmednagar is all set to receive Union Home Minister Amit Shah who arrives on a two-day visit to Maharashtra starting Saturday, officials said here on Friday. A trust official said Shah is likely to take ‘darshan’ of Saibaba Samadhi Temple prior to the pre-noon ‘aarti’ to ensure there is no disturbance to the regular devotees who throng here from all over the country daily.

The trust is planning to felicitate the Union Home Minister — who has been a frequent visitor to the temple in the past — in Maharashtrian traditions with a shawl, coconut, Saibaba’s ‘vibhuti’ (holy ash) and a miniature statue of the saint revered by all communities.

Several other engagements are lined up for Shah in Mumbai, Pune and Ahmednagar during his trip. Besides the Shirdi Temple, Shah — who is also the Union Cooperatives Minister — will attend an event at the Padmashri Dr. Vithalrao Vikhe-Patil Cooperative Sugar Factory at Loni in Ahmednagar before attending the Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) awards function in Mumbai.
