Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going on a tour of Prayagraj in Uttar Pradesh today. The Prime Minister will inaugurate projects worth about Rs 7 thousand crores related to Mahakumbh 2025 there. And not only this, he will also visit the reclining Hanuman temple. Apart from this, he will also meet saints after visiting many major pilgrimage sites including Akshay Vat temple. Let us tell you that the temple of reclining Hanuman ji is going to be a special attraction for the devotees this time too in the Mahakumbh to be held in Prayagraj. According to the information, the glory of the reclining Hanuman temple that PM Modi is going to visit is unique. In the country, only the place on the banks of the Ganges in Prayagraj is the place where Bajrang Bali is lying in a resting state.
This temple is about 600 years old
This statue of Hanumanji is 20 feet long, facing south and about 7 feet below the ground. The Hanumanji lying on the banks of Sangam is also known as Bade Hanumanji, Qila Wale Hanumanji, Bandh Wale Hanumanji and Lete Hanumanji. This temple is said to be about 600 years old. It is believed that when Hanumanji was returning after conquering Lanka, he started feeling tired on the way. Seeing him tired, Mother Sitaji herself asked him to rest for a while.
Maa Ganga herself comes to make him take a bath
It is said that the history of the Mughals is also connected to this temple. Akbar also had to accept defeat here. Actually, during the rainy season, when the water level of the Ganga would rise, the entire temple would get submerged and Maa Ganga herself would come to make him take a bath. During that time, the incident of his bathing in the Ganga started spreading rapidly all around and soon a crowd of people started gathering there. Then what, a fair started being held there every year, which came to be known as Magh Mela. The Mughals started getting jealous of the fame of the temple.

Mughal emperor Akbar had also accepted defeat
Meanwhile, on the orders of Mughal emperor Akbar, the soldiers tried to remove the statue of Bajrangbali from the ground. But the amazing thing is that even after a million attempts, they could not even move the statue. It is said that the more they tried to lift the statue, the more its weight increased. Due to the increasing weight, it was sinking deeper into the earth. When Akbar got information about this, he understood that this is not an ordinary statue. There is definitely an invisible power in it, which does not want anyone to remove that statue from there. Mughal Akbar also bowed down in front of the glory of Bajrangbali.
