Over 100,000 Hindus in Pakistan embark on a three-day-long Hinglaj Yatra, scaling steep mud volcanoes to reach the ancient cave temple of Hinglaj Mata. The festival takes place in the dramatic surroundings of Hingol National Park in Baluchistan province and is expected to draw a large number of participants. Hindus from across the country make the sacred pilgrimage, seeking divine forgiveness and blessings.

The journey begins with pilgrims travelling from cities like Hyderabad and Karachi, navigating through rocky terrain and sometimes travelling barefoot. The festival holds great significance in the Hindu religion, with the temple’s most senior cleric emphasizing its sacredness and the belief that worship during these three days will absolve all sins.

The event showcases the peaceful coexistence of Muslims and Hindus in Pakistan, despite historical tensions. The pilgrimage to Hinglaj Mata symbolizes the enduring faith and devotion of the Hindu community in the country.
