Today, Rajasthan celebrates the birth anniversary of a truly unique and revered figure—Shri Om Banna Ji. Known for the legendary temple on the Pali-Jodhpur highway, his presence is felt by every traveler seeking safety and blessings. 🛣️🙏

Rajasthan’s Cabinet Minister Col. Rajyavardhan Rathore shared a moving tribute to the "supremely revered deity-like" figure.

The Highlights of the Message:

Heartfelt Greetings: Warm wishes to all devotees celebrating this special day.

A Prayer for All: A sincere wish that Om Banna Ji’s protection and grace stay with every Rajasthani.

Honoring Tradition: Recognizing the deep-rooted folk traditions that make Rajasthan vibrant.

On the highway in Rajasthan, there’s a temple for a motorcycle.

Not just any motorcycle. It’s the Bullet of Lokdevta Om Banna—a folk deity believed to protect travelers.

Today is his Punyatithi (death anniversary).

And Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore paid his respects, saying:

"My humble tribute to Lokdevta Shri Om Banna Ji on his Punyatithi. May the power and blessings of his divine soul remain with us all."

Think about that for a second.

A modern-day leader honoring a folk legend born from a tragic accident and a mysterious, recurring Bullet.

It’s where faith meets the open road. Where petrol is an offering and a helmet is a prayer.

It’s raw, real, and uniquely Indian.
