Shah was accompanied by Assam chief minister Sarbanand Sonowal and finance minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.
The home minister, however, entered the sanctum sanctorum of the temple with just three ”Dolois” or priests, as Sonowal and Sarma waited near its gate.
He also undertook a ”parikrama” (circumambulation) around the shrine, the senior official added.
