On May 13th, in the evening, Jagadguru Sri Sri Vidhushekhara Bharati Sannidhanam arrived at Ishwaramangala, where Sri Sannidhanam visited Amaragiri and Ramagiri and performed Mangalarati to Sri Kodandarama Swami. Thereafter, Sri Sannidhanam visited Hanumagiri and performed Mangalarati to Sri Anjaneya Swami.

Subsequently, Sri Sannidhanam graced the sabha and delivered an Anugraha Bhashanam. During the discourse, Sri Sannidhanam mentioned that the history of our nation has often been presented in a distorted manner to create the impression that Bharat suffered repeated defeats, whereas in reality Bharat had achieved victory in many battles throughout history. Sri Sannidhanam further noted that even in several wars that were lost, defeat had often resulted from acts of betrayal.
