During the occasion, he displayed several firearms, swords and other weapons at the venue and worshipped them. “We worship the scriptures on the day of Vijayadashami. This is the speciality of our Hindu Sanatani system. When I was elected in 2020, there was a pandemic period and due to this public celebration was not happening in the country. Then I met with an accident and was on bed rest for one and a half years. Now, I have recovered. All this happened due to the wish of Maa Bhagwati. And the worship of scriptures and its distribution is also happening due to her wish,” Kumar said.
