Ujjain:  Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, many Madhya Pradesh ministers, district collectors and various state departments have changed their profile photographs on Twitter to a common thematic picture ahead of the opening of the grand ‘Mahakal Lok’ on October 11.
While Scindia, a scion of the erstwhile royal family of Gwalior, which has an intricate link with Ujjain has changed his display picture, others have also changed the cover photograph of their Twitter accounts.
Some top officials here have changed their display photos on WhatsApp too.
This trend comes after Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan appealed to people on Twitter to do so to offer “our venerable worship” to the presiding deity of the ancient Mahakaleshwar temple, days before the new corridor to the ‘Mahakal Maharaj’ is dedicated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Chouhan on Thursday afternoon had changed the display picture and cover photo on his official Twitter handle to two digital posters bearing the name ‘Shri Mahakal Lok Ujjain’, and images of Mahakaleshwar Temple and the holy Jyotirlinga respectively.
The Mahakaleshwar Temple is one of the 12 ‘jyotirlings’ in the country and gets devotees throughout the year.
