He further said that 15 years back we have started to annul the Shivaratri festival where up to 200 devotees participated and every year the number of participants has increased, last year around 800 people from KP, Punjab, and Sindh arrived at the temple.
Besides traditional invitation we have also invited the Hindus from around the world on the temple’s Facebook page and mentioned that Pakistan is a peaceful country.
