Kailash Kher to sing special anthem on Mahakal corridor opening day in Ujjain

Ujjain (MP), Oct 8 (PTI) A special anthem dedicated to Lord Shiva, the resident deity of the ancient Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain, will be sung by Kailash Kher on the day the mega corridor will be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, officials said on Saturday.   The anthem 'Jai Shri Mahakal' has been composed to mark the creation of the new corridor, christened 'Mahakal Lok'.

PM Modi will dedicate the first phase of the Rs 856-crore Mahakaleshwar Temple corridor development project on October 11 here, around 200 km from the state capital Bhopal.   "Mega arrangements are being made for the opening of the 'Mahakal Lok' that will be dedicated to the people by the PM. After reaching Ujjain in the evening, he will drive to the temple complex in his motorcade, and perform a 'puja' at the Mahakaleshwar Temple.

"After that, he will go to the 'Nandi Dwar', the main gateway of the new corridor, and inaugurate the corridor," said a senior official of Ujjain Smart City Ltd, which has executed the project.
