Former ADM of Nainital, Harbir Singh also sang a devotional song on the occasion. Various other musical and cultural items were also presented by the devotees on the occasion. 

While heavy rains disrupted the flow of devotees on Monday, the clear weather on Tuesday resulted in a large number of visitors to the shrine. Many of them shopped for various items at the stalls set on the DSA ground near the temple. Later in the evening, Deepdan was organized in the Naini lake.
