A Hindu priest (C) blesses ritually bound devotees lying on the ground during a ritual as part of the annual Shiva Gajan religious festival at pratapgarh, on the outskirts of Northeastern Indian city of Agartala, April 14, 2015.
Hundreds of faithful devotees offer sacrifices and perform acts of devotion during the festival in the hopes of winning the favour of Hindu god shiva and ensuring the fulfillment of their wishes, and also to mark the end of the Bengali calendar year.
Is this a blesseing or punishment?
