A Pakistani delegation on Wednesday arrived at the Ajmer Sharif shrine on the occasion of Urs.

Urs is an annual festival held at Ajmer which commemorates the death anniversary of the Sufi saint Moinuddin Chishti.

The anniversary is celebrated in the seventh month of the Islamic lunar calendar. Thousands of pilgrims visit the shrine from all over India and abroad.

Earlier on Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi handed over a 'chaadar' to be offered at the dargah of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti, Ajmer Sharif, to Minister of State for Minority Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi.
