Ajmer, Sept 04: The annual Urs of Sufi saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti concluded here with the 'Kul' ceremony this afternoon. The ceremony was held after the last daily 'qawwali mehfil' in the 'mehfilkhana' of the 'dargah' and the 'kewra' (scented water) bath of the saint's tomb. More than four lakh pilgrims from various parts of the country paid homage to Khwaja Saheb seeking his blessings during the six-day Urs. Unlike in previous years, most of the devotees this year returned immediately after offering prayers at the 'dargah' hitting the business of shopkeepers in Dargah Bazar and adjoining areas.
The administration had made tight security arrangements during the Urs in view of twin bomb blasts in Mumbai. Bureau Report
