Devotees Ride Motorcycle Modified as Nandi During Kanwar Yatra Pilgrimage
During the Kanwar Yatra pilgrimage, two devotees rode a motorcycle extensively modified to resemble Nandi, the sacred bull of Lord Shiva. Covered in white furry material with a makeshift Nandi face above the headlight, the bike stood out among the procession. A video of the creatively decorated vehicle was shared on X with the caption "India is not for beginners," quickly going viral and drawing attention for its unique religious symbolism and design.
