New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday began his 45-hour-long meditation session at Vivekananda Rock Memorial in Kanyakumari.

He arrived earlier in the day from Thiruvananthapuram and offered prayers at the Bhagavathi Amman Temple. He will perform meditation at Vivekananda Rock Memorial for nearly two days till the evening of June 1.

He will meditate day and night at the same place where Swami Vivekanand did meditation, at the Dhyan Mandapam, ANI reported.

Ahead of his departure on June 1, Modi is likely to visit the Thiruvalluvar statue, next to the memorial. Both the memorial and statue were built on tiny islets, that are separate and mound-like rocky formations in the sea.

All arrangements, including heavy security, are in place for Modi’s 45-hour stay at the famed, mid-sea memorial, named after the revered Hindu saint.

Modi will meditate at Rock Memorial, a monument built in tribute to Swami Vivekananda, here following the culmination of the Lok Sabha polls campaign later today, BJP leaders had said. The PM had undertaken a similar exercise in a Kedarnath cave after the 2019 poll campaign.

Security has been beefed up ahead of Modi’s visit and 2000 police personnel will stand guard during his stay, even as the Indian Coast Guard and Indian Navy will also maintain tight vigil.
