Anant Ambani, who recently became the whole-time director of Reliance Industries Limited, visited Haridwar’s Har Ki Pauri with his wife, Radhika Merchant, on Sunday, May 4.
As seen in several visuals released by news wires ANI, PTI, Mukesh Ambani’s youngest son, and daughter-in-law Radhika Merchant performed the ‘Ganga pujan’ (Ganga puja) with priests of the Ganga Sabha.
Temple authorities and priests also presented Anant Ambani with a rudraksha garland, and a yellow stole.
Where is Har Ki Pauri?
Har Ki Pauri, also known as Brahmakund, is the main ghat in Haridwar and a revered pilgrimage site in Uttarakhand. It is believed to be the sacred spot where the Ganga river emerges from the mountains and begins its journey across the plains.

In April, Anant Ambani marked his 30th birthday with a 140-kilometre padyatra (journey on foot) from Jamnagar’s Moti Khavdi to the Shree Dwarkadhish Temple. Anant Ambani had begun his yatra on March 29, reported ANI.
“This was a spiritual journey,” he told ANI. “I started it in God’s name and completed it in His name. I thank Bhagawan Dwarkadhish and everyone who joined me along the way.”
