Chairman Gautam Adani along with his wife Dr Priti Adani- Chairperson, Adani Foundation, his brother Rajesh Adani-Managing Director, AEL and his wife Shilin Adani-trustee, Adani Foundation, visited the renowned Ajmer Sharif Dargah in Rajasthan on 15 Feb 2025. The Adani family’s visit to the Dargah reflected their deep respect for the shrine’s spiritual significance and the universal message it represents.
A Revered Pilgrimage and Spiritual Offering
The Adani family paid their respects to the tomb of Khwaja Moin-ud-din Chishti, a celebrated Sufi saint whose teachings of love, peace, and inclusivity continue to resonate across generations. Known for opening his heart and teachings to people of all faiths, Khwaja Moin-ud-din’s legacy of harmony is central to the shrine’s significance. During their visit, the Chairman and his family offered a “makhmali chadar” (a fine velvet cloth) and flowers at the saint’s tomb, a traditional act of devotion signifying their respect.
The Dargah itself, with its marble and gold-plated tomb, is a magnificent symbol of the saint's universal appeal, attracting followers from around the world. The doors of the shrine have always been open to people of all religions, a tradition that has endured for centuries, reflecting the inclusive spirit that Khwaja Moin-ud-din Chishti championed in his lifetime.
Haji Syed Salman Chishty, a prominent figure associated with the Dargah, praised Chairman and his family for embodying the saint's teachings. He said, “Hazrat Khwaja Gharib Nawaz preached the message of universal love, service to humanity, and peace. Gautam Adani Ji and his blessed family have embodied these principles through their tireless commitment to the well-being of millions.”
Sharing Blessings with the Pilgrims
In keeping with the spirit of generosity, the Adani family also arranged a special vegetarian langar (community meal), which was served to hundreds of pilgrims at the shrine. This thoughtful gesture of sharing food with visitors reflected their commitment to the values of service, kindness, and compassion. It was a meaningful way to extend the teachings of Khwaja Moin-ud-din Chishti and offer blessings to those who had come to the shrine seeking peace and solace.
