Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said that no words are enough to do justice to the monumental contribution of the great Adi Shankaracharya towards preserving our culture.
"No words are enough to do justice to the monumental contribution of the great Adi Shankaracharya towards preserving our culture. In Kedarnath today, I had the honour of dedicating to the nation the Shri Adi Shankaracharya Samadhi," PM Modi tweeted.
