Kathmandu. Like other years, devotees have thronged the Pashupatinath temple on the day of Teej.

Devotees have been queuing up at Pashupatinath since early morning. Pashupati Area Development Trust has provided various facilities for the convenience of the devotees. For the first time this year, artificial water droplets have been installed to protect themselves from heat.

It was evaporated in front of the west gate of the temple. It has been tested now and will be used at other times if it is found to be effective later. In the past, this measure has been adopted after women fainted due to heat on teej day.
