The North and South Sabarkantha Zone of Shri Akhil Bharatiya Kutch Kadwa Patidar Samaj, along with the Sabar Region of Yuva Sangh, is the second most populous region in our society after Kutch. It’s often referred to as the “second Kutch.” This region encompasses the entire Sabarkantha and Aravalli districts, as well as the primarily agricultural areas of Banaskantha, Mehsana, Gandhinagar, Kheda, and Mahisagar districts. It includes around 350 kampas/villages or farms and eight divisional societies spread across seven districts.

In summary, the area stretching from Kapdwanj to Amirgarh and from Vijayanagar to Gandhinagar is an exemplary hub of the Sanatan organization. The dedication and contributions of both the elder generations and the youth in this region hold a unique and special place in the preservation and promotion of Sanatan Dharma, viewed from the perspective of the past.

Elders of Sabarkantha conceived and laid the foundation for the construction of Kuldevi Shri Umiya Mataji Mandir, Bandhay

On the 14th Kartak Vad of Vikram Samvat 2000, during the General Assembly of Shri Vijay Mandal Sansthan Sanatan, which was held in Rampura Kampa (now Aniyor Kampa) under the leadership of elder Hansraj Naran Pokar, a significant proposal was made. This assembly was organized by Saint Shri Sadhu Dayaldas of Kutch Vandhaya, who was a disciple of Guru Pvt. Odhavaram and Shishya Guru Pvt. Lalram Maharaj. Haribhai Karamashibhai Bhavani, an esteemed member from Motesari Kampa in Sabarkantha, was inspired by a religious lecture. He proposed the construction of a temple dedicated to Kuldevi Umiya Mataji in Kutch – Ishwar Nagar, Bandhai, which is considered our central and ancestral land.

Eight days later, a three-day social gathering took place at Borditimba Kampa, which resembled a convention for followers of Sanatan Dharma in the region. During this event, discussions regarding community customs were initiated. In this meeting, there was unanimous agreement to proceed with the construction of the Umiya Mataji temple in Vandhay.

As the attendees applauded this collective decision, Danveer Haribhai stepped forward voluntarily and contributed Rs. 1001 towards this noble cause, fulfilling his duty as a devout follower of Sanatan Dharma. Other members of the society who were present at the meeting also made donations totaling Rs. 1489. Additional information can be found in points 150.23 and 150.24 of Volume 1 of this book.

The idea and financial support for the construction of the Shri Umiya Mataji Mandir in 1938, initiated by the brothers of the Sabarkantha area, played a crucial role in fortifying the core social structure of Sanatan. It also served as an inspiration for other regions to embrace and implement the Sanatan ideology.

The first Lord Shri Lakshminarayan Panmurthy temple of the community was established

The Sabarkantha area has played a leading role in the ongoing awareness movement to reintegrate the community into Sanatan Dharma (the eternal religion). With the blessings and guidance of Santashree Odhavaram Maharaj, along with the dedicated efforts of individuals like Ratanshi Khimji Khetani, Narayan Shivji Nakarani, Shivdas Kanji Nakarani (Virani Moti), and Rajarambhai Shamji DholuDholo (Mankua), the first Panmurthy Temple of Lord Shri Lakshminarayan for the community was established on the second Shravan Sud-11 of Samvat 1984, which corresponds to Saturday, August 26, 1928. This historic event took place at Borditimba in Kampa. Following this significant milestone, the flame of eternal consciousness continued to spread, and temples dedicated to Lord Shri Lakshminarayan were established at various locations, including Takhatgarh, Ramsi Kampa, Maganpura Kampa, Hirapur Kampa, Madhav Kampa, Aminpura Lat, Gotadi Lat, Maganpura Lat, Motesari, Kharod Kampa (Ranjitpura), and Navanagar.

    Yuva Sangh Sabar Region’s Sanatan Tankar…

The active involvement of youth in theater activities and Sanatan Dharma awareness meetings, along with the presentation of the white paper on the Kendriya Samaj and the Sanatan approach by the youth of Saber at Nakhtrana and Sathawar, led to significant developments.

Samjhe Patidar

A white paper was released by the Central Samaj to foster a stronger sense of Sanatan passion among the community people of the Sabarkantha area. This effort was a joint initiative led by the Presidents of the Central Samaj’s North (Narsimhbhai Ramani) and South Sabarkantha (Poonambhai Dholu) Zones, along with the Chairman of Yuva Sangh Saber Region (Saurabh Ramani). An impressive sum of 80,000 was contributed for this cause and sent to Himatnagar.

The event took place under the banner “Samje Patidar Toh Vikse Patidar” and attracted a large and diverse crowd from various communities. The gathering featured prominent figures such as the President of the Central Samaj, Shri Ramji Nakrani, and other top leaders, including Keshavalal Seth and Manibhai Mami from Unja Umiya Mataji Sansthan. Several passionate speakers who supported the Sanatan ideology, including Himantbhai Khetani, Rameshbhai Waghdia, and Premjibhai Keshrani, left a lasting impression on the people of the Kampa area.

The presence of 55 top social leaders at this meeting had a significant impact and caused a stir among Piranathists. Simultaneously, the Sanatan movement gained strength among those who believed in social harmony and inclusivity, and they wholeheartedly embraced the approach of the Central Samaj.

Thus, Sabarkantha became the first district in India to pass resolutions for strict implementation of the Central Samaj White Paper. This meeting spread the word among the youth and planted the seeds of a new Sanatan revolution among the youth of Sabarkantha.

Kartavya Darshan

The Yuva Sangh team in the Saber Region was working tirelessly to promote Sanatan initiatives. However, in some places, the original Sanatan elders, who held conservative views, were causing more challenges by acting as obstacles rather than the Pirana followers. They often preferred to maintain a passive stance, avoiding public exposure and any political motives to secure their positions.

In an effort to rejuvenate the Sanatan ideology in these elders and harness their valuable insights for the benefit of society, a program titled “Kartavya Darshan” was organized at Ayodhya Dham – Sunderpura, under the slogan of the Yuva Sangh, “Turn the timid rabbit into a courageous lion and transform the conservative into an active participant.” The aim was to make the essence of Sanatan ideology more relevant and useful for society.

It was planned that the presidents and ministers of every society in the village, along with all office-bearers of departmental societies, would be specially invited to this meeting. The leadership of the Central Yuva Sangh and the Central Samaj provided guidance during this event.

Through the Kartavya Darshan program, all the elders of Sabar were once again infused with the spirit of Sanat, and they reconnected with the Central Samaj. Santshri Dayal Dasji and P. Odhavaramji Maharaj, by following the path of Kandarel Sanat, successfully helped these elders shed their conservative attitudes. Kartavya Darshan played a pivotal role in transforming them back into adherents of the strict Sanatan ideology.

Mod Parishad – Contact Trips: Ignite the social spirit among the masses

In 2012, under the leadership of Vasant DholuDholo, Dr. Bharat Surani as the Mission Chairman, and Jitendra Divani as the Chief Secretary, Team Saber made a strategic decision. They aimed to engage with the youth, elders, and women residing in the city to impart knowledge and create awareness about the organization and the developmental activities undertaken by the Central Society and Yuva Sangh.

A unique experiment was initiated, emphasizing efficiency by making the best use of available resources. This approach aimed to avoid wasting space, time, and resources on elaborate receptions and honors. Instead, the gatherings required only basic amenities like light, water, and mats. During these meetings, the objective was to connect with the hearts of Sanatan followers through a setup that involved “No Mala (garlands), No Mike (microphones), No Manch (stages).”

For seating, simple mats made by farmers from empty compost bags were commonly used. Participants would sit on these mats, engaging in discussions conducted in an informal and personable manner. As a result, these gatherings came to be known as “Mod Parishad.”

The impact of these meetings, where people could connect on a personal level, cannot be overstated. Saber’s Mod Parishad gained popularity throughout India and became an influential journey for promoting Sanatan ideology and fostering connections among its followers.

First Sanatani Cricket – Volleyball Festival

Recognizing the passion for cricket among the youth of the society, they set aside the differences that the Piranapanthi and Satpanthi communities faced and decided to organize a late-night cricket tournament during the summer. The focus was on fostering unity and camaraderie among the Sanatan followers, aligning with the Sanatan campaign promoted by the Yuva Sangh Saber Region. This initiative aimed to bring together Sanatans and strengthen their bonds through the shared love for the game of cricket.

The team dedicated itself to offering a platform for these cricket enthusiasts. Initially, there was collaboration between Takhatgarh and Kheroj Kampa, but it was later decided to modify the plans initiated in the mixed group. The new plan focused exclusively on individuals affiliated with the Sanatan Samaj who possessed a Yuva Sangh family ID. This decision further fueled the passion of the Yuva Sangh team.

Following this, the Yuva Sangh Saber region organized multiple cricket events, taking place concurrently in various areas. These events were designed to engage the youth associated with the Sanatan Samaj, deliberately excluding the Piranapanthi youth to maintain a distinct focus.

The Sanatan night volleyball tournament began in Ishwarpura camp, marking the start of a new era for Sanatan among the youth and donors alike. Through each game, a spirit of Sanatan began to emerge, carrying the slogan “Ramshe Sanatni… Jitshe Sanatni… Bindah ke fraterneh fraternesh Sanatni…”

As a result, the torchbearers of Sanatan consciousness began to shine brightly among the youth in the realm of sports. Gradually, the enthusiasm for Sanatan was infused into every young person through various programs exclusively designed for Sanatans.

Snehganth : Sanatan’s version among students

“Snehganth” is a youth gathering specifically for Sanat students who are either in class 12th or college. The aim is to instill a sense of Sanatan consciousness, especially among those who may not be fully aware of the historical struggle of elders against the Piranapanthis for the preservation of the Potika Sanatan Dharma. To commemorate this, it was decided to celebrate the meeting of sons and daughters from across the Sanatan community as “Snehganth” every year on the first Sunday of January. This event replaced the previously held KKP picnic, which included participants from both Sanatan and Piranapanthi communities.

As part of the efforts to maintain a clear distinction from Piranapanthi influences, a Sanatan organization called “Sanatan Vidyarthi Sangh” was established in every school and college. It was incorporated into the structure as the 14th element of Yuva Sangh. Consequently, college students were granted the freedom to organize and participate in stage performances and programs under the auspices of Yuva Sangh. This initiative not only allowed college students to express themselves but also encouraged them to take on leadership roles within the Saber team, all while pursuing their studies.

This coming together and collaboration provided significant momentum to the Sanatan ideology promoted by the Central Samaj and the Yuva Sangh. In particular, through this program, as young sons and daughters of the Sanatan community engaged in various activities, it helped address certain issues related to kinship and contributed to preventing further spread of Piranapanth influences.

Dandiya Carnival: Youths become sportsmen of the past

The Navratri festival holds a special significance and enthusiasm among the youth in our society. Recognizing this, Team Yuva Sangh, through various committees such as Webcom, Yuva Utkarsh, Social Spiritual, and Matrimonial, has taken commendable steps to perpetuate the Sanatan ideology and strengthen the organization. They have organized a separate Dandiya Carnival for the young sons and daughters of Sanatan from the entire region after Navratri. Over time, these initiatives have also been carried out on a departmental basis.

With this well-planned approach, those in the Piranapanthi community, who previously limited their involvement to superficial expressions of devotion to Mataji, also began organizing Navratri events in their villages to maintain their Hindu identity. This effort has had a significant impact in fostering the Sanatan ideology and strengthening the bonds within the community.

Panchamrita : Sanatan raspan with activity in children

“Panchamrita” is an initiative aimed at sowing the seeds of the Sanatan ideology in children from our society up to the age of 18. It also seeks to foster friendships with children from other Sanatan families and instill in them qualities such as courage, compassion, initiative, civility, and organization. These five-day programs were conducted in diverse ways, and only individuals from the Sanatan community were allowed to participate. Unfortunately, young children from Piranapanthi families were not able to partake in this wonderful program. However, it played a significant role in revitalizing the spirit of eternal awakening.

YSK (Youth Security Shield): Saber gave life to this scheme   

With the blessings of Shree Samaj, the Kendriya Yuva Sangh ran the Yuva Suraksha Kavach Yojana scheme, which had around 900 members. However, in 2012, Team Saber decided to take this scheme door-to-door. During a meeting held in Nashik by the then central team, there was a move to discontinue the scheme, and a team was formed to re-evaluate it. Both Team Saber and Kutch conveyed to the central leadership that there was no need to terminate the scheme and that Saber and Kutch would continue to run it separately. The South Maharashtra Goa region also provided significant support and successfully organized the first camp of this scheme with 2500 members.

As a result, Dr. Vasant Dhalo (Sabar), Pravin Dhalo (Kutch), and Ravi Dhalo (DMG), along with other regions, embarked on the remarkable task of expanding the scheme door-to-door across India. The scheme gained momentum and ultimately received a positive report from the review committee, leading to its continuation.

The YSK (Yuva Suraksha Kavach) scheme, with its motto “Apne leye nahi… Lekin apno keleye” (Not for oneself… But for one’s own), has become a model for the society. As time passed, the friends who initially promoted the scheme at the regional level received tremendous support from individuals of all communitys across India. With central leadership taking charge, the scheme has now grown to include over 43,000 members, and a total of Rs. 40 crores has been provided to the families of deceased members.

Importantly, the scheme has been embraced by other societies, and they have initiated similar programs in their communities. The Vishwa Umiya Foundation, a global organization of Kadwa Patidars, has also recognized the significance of the scheme and launched it for all Patidars under the name “Umachhatra.”

In this way, the Saber team has played a pivotal role in rejuvenating our Youth Protection Shield (YSK) scheme and expanding its positive impact on society.

Amirgarh: Initiation of the Sanatan Samaj 

After the release of the white paper by the Central Samaj, the youth from the Sabar region initiated contact with young friends from the Shri Kutch Kadwa Patidar Samaj residing in the Amirgarh area. They engaged in detailed discussions with them, and both the elders and youths in Amirgarh resolved to establish the Kutch Kadwa Patidar Sanatan Samaj Amirgarh Division as per the directive of the Central Samaj.

The youth team organized a night meeting and collaborated with members of the Amirgarh Yuva Mandal, including those from the Piranapanthi community, to address matters related to joint funds and other concerns based on membership criteria. Their goal was to illuminate the path of the Sanatan ideology. Following the release of the white paper, Amirgarh became the first location in India to transition from Piranapanthi to Shuddha Sanatan Samaj in a single meeting on 15.02.2011.

As a result, the Sanatan Samaj and Sanatan Yuva Mandal were established with approximately 700 members residing in this region. It’s worth noting that every member of this Sanatani Samaj in the area is a life member of the Central Samaj, which may be a first in India. Simultaneously, they are providing 100% cooperation in every program, including the Diwali boni organized by the Central Society. This region consistently leads in contributions within the Saber Zone and Region, showcasing their dedication and commitment to the Sanatan ideology.    

Creation of Sanatan Medicos  

After the release of the white paper and the fifth convention of the Central Society, an appeal was made to all intellectuals in the society to collaborate in the campaign for Sanatan through zones and regions. A meeting was organized for all Sanat’s doctor friends at Trinity School in Talod, with the presence of Vasantbhai DholuDholo (Talod), Vasantbhai Limbani (Modasa), and friends from the zone.

During the discussion, all doctor friends were encouraged to fulfill their duty towards Sanatan and support the ideology of the Central Society. On behalf of all Sanatni doctor friends, individuals including Dr. Amritbhai Dholu, Dr. C.D. Patel (Himatnagar), Dr. Haribhai Patel, Dr. Govindbhai Rangani (Modasa), Dr. Shantilal Patel (Dhansura), Dr. Anilbhai and Jitubhai (Talod), Dr. Vitthal Bhavani (Naroda), and several other young doctor friends decided to establish “Sanatan Medicos.” They also decided to organize Medicos Milan biennially for years without involving Satpanth-Sanatan controversies, solely under the banner of Sanatan Medicos. To support this initiative, they sought the assistance of Yuva Sangh and decided to collaborate with the health committee of Yuva Sangh.

Subsequently, the first love meeting of “Sanatan Medicos” was organized under the name “Spandan-1” at Uma Vidyapeeth, Satarawala, Surat Kendriya Samaj. Following this, the second meeting was held in Dombivli, Mumbai, the third in Vadtal, the fourth in Bhuj, and the fifth in Geod, Sabarkantha.

Over the past decade, the doctor friends of Sanatan Medicos have made significant contributions to the Central Society by serving as office bearers in Yuva Sangh as well. They have also organized numerous camps for members of the community. At this stage, we extend our congratulations to all the intellectual doctor friends.

Following the establishment of Sanatan Medicos, various organizations like Sanatan Educos, Sanatan CA/CS, Sanatan Advocates, among others, have been actively contributing to the development of the society through the efforts of Yuva Sangh.

Unja Pili Patrika: An overview of the struggle of Sanatan

A meeting was convened with all the administrators of Umiya Mataji temples across India in Unjha. Piranapanthists were also in attendance, individuals who outwardly professed belief in Umiya Mataji but were known to secretly adhere to Satpanth. Despite multiple presentations to the Movdis of Unjha, these individuals remained stubbornly inclined towards Satpanth, which was detrimental to the Sanatan cause.

Recognizing this issue, a team consisting of Himmatbhai Khetani, Premjibhai Kesrani, and Chandrakantbhai Chabhaiya from Mumbai invited some friends to join them. The following day, approximately 50 Sanatan friends, including youths and elders from various departments, arrived with Team Saber. A “Pili Patrika” printed on yellow paper, exposing the words and beliefs of the Piranapanthis regarding Umiya Mataji, was distributed to all friends before the meeting commenced. This revelation about the Piranapanthis’ attitude towards Umiya Mataji caused widespread consternation among temple administrators across India.

After the conclusion of the meeting, a separate gathering was held with Sanat’s friends. After understanding and endorsing their statements, they agreed on the next course of action. In due course, Umiya Mataji Sansthan-Unja acted as a mediator between the two communities and issued a verdict on the Pirana issue, directing the Satpanth community to merge with the larger community. Detailed information on this matter can be found in the book “Satpanth Chho.”

Atithi Devo Bhava: The bridge of intimacy between Kachchh – Kampa

Following the successful organization of the Youth Olympic Games by the Central Youth Association in various cities across India, including Pune, Gandhinagar, Surat, and Hyderabad, it was decided to host the fifth Youth Olympics at Saber Stadium in Himmatnagar.

The Kampa area, which was primarily associated with agriculture, had a somewhat different profile compared to friends living in other regions associated with Kutch. They had limited residences or relatives in Kutch, and their connection with Kutch was primarily through meetings of the Kendriya Samaj or Yuva Sangh. After closely observing this situation over the years, a new idea emerged: “Atiti Devo Bhava” (The guest is God). Instead of arranging accommodation for the athletes, guests, and community members coming to this sports festival from all over India in hotels or lodges, the idea was to provide lodging within the families of each Kampa. This way, they would stay in the area for three to four days, interact with the local residents, get to know each other, build relationships, and strengthen the community organization as a result.

Under the “Athithi Devo Bhava” scheme, more than 5,000 players, guests, and community members were provided door-to-door accommodations in 40 kampas around Himmatnagar, as well as in Himmatnagar and Talod towns. The teams were warmly welcomed in the villages, and they enjoyed night festivities, field trips, and joyful interactions. As the Olympics concluded, the athletes formed close bonds with each village and family they stayed with. A new connection was established with the village, and when they returned home, they proudly added the name of the Kampa they had visited to their identity.

For example, Bangalore’s Kampa became Takhatgarh, Nagpur’s Kampa became Nawanagar, South Indians’ Kampa became Gandhipura Kampa, Delhi-Rajasthan’s Kampa became Haripura Kampa, Mumbaikars’ Kampa became Bilpana Kampa, Hyderabadi’s Kampa became Kashipura Kampa, Kolkata’s Kampa became Nicoda Kampa, Odisha’s Kampa became Chandrapura Kampa, and the Kampo of the people of Kutch became Pipli Kampa, while the Kampo of the people of Madhya Maharashtra became Rupal Kampa. This initiative helped foster a sense of unity and belonging among the participants from various regions.

Friends from all over India enthusiastically embraced the “Atithi Devo Bhava” initiative. The Olympic Games were successfully conducted at a cost of only 72 lakh rupees. This event marked the most intimate and budget-friendly program organized by the Kendriya Yuva Sangh to date, leaving a lasting impression on everyone involved. “Atithi Devo Bhava” proved to be a driving force for the Sanatan organization, and the Yuva Sangh also contributed 1 Crore 35 Lakh rupees to Shri Samaj through the “Vidya Lakshmi Amrit Kumbh” for the “Vidya Setu” scheme. This generous contribution further strengthened the Sanatan cause.

Controversy faced against Lakshminarayan Mandir Prestige or Samaj Bhawan Inauguration 

The construction of the Lord Shri Lakshminarayan Temple in Sabarkantha marked a significant milestone. It was initiated with the inspiration of P. Santashree Odhavaramji, Pu. Santashree Dayaldasji, and Ratan Shibhai Khetani, who worked tirelessly to awaken Sanatan Dharma and gather support for building the temple.

However, after the release of the white paper by the central society, efforts were made in some areas of Sabarkantha to restore the dignity of existing temples or to build new ones. The Sanatan Dharma Jagran Samiti and central leadership played a crucial role in these initiatives, but their activities began to irritate the Piranapanthi followers in the surrounding areas. This led to disruptions and increased tensions between the Sanatan and Satpanth communities.

During the vigil of the temple in Dhanpura Kampa, a social meeting took place, and it was attended by the presence of police. That night, troublemakers attempted to sabotage the event by placing small nails on the road to puncture tires and blocking the roads. Similarly, in Chamu Kampa, the Piranapanthis were not provided with pamphlets at the temple event, so they came in large numbers to the village, demanding pamphlets and causing a disturbance. The police had to be called to maintain order.

Even during the construction of the Sanatan Samaj Wadi in Dehgam, some well-wishers of the society who supported the Khanapanthis tried to disrupt the proceedings. They attempted to turn off the microphone during Premjibhai Keshrani’s Sanatan speech, which led to a confrontation with the Sanatanis present at the meeting.

These incidents of disruption by those opposing Sanatan strengthened the Sanatan organization and prompted further changes in their scriptures.

Awareness of Sanatan in the Wadali area

In the remote forested areas at the end of Sabarkantha, the community elders purchased land for agriculture and settled there. This area had a significant presence of Piranapanthis. Most of the residents were a mix of Sanatan and Satpanth followers, making it challenging to promote Sanatan practices.

However, the influence of P. Sanatan in this area was bolstered by the presence of Pandurang Dada and the continuous visits of saints through Ishwar Ashram-Vandhay. Temples dedicated to Lord Shri Lakshminarayan were also constructed in Derol, Chotasan, Chamunkampa, and Kubadharol Kampa in this region.

Despite the small number of Sanatans, the elders of this area established the Wadali-KhedBrahma-Idar-Vijaynagar-Taranga Divisional Sanatan Samaj many years ago. Over time, they also acquired land for the Sanatan Samajwadi in KhedBrahma.

After the release of the white paper by the Kendriya Samaj, the Sanatan activities in this area have gained momentum. With a population of 430 families and around 2500 Sanatan followers, this area has become a leader in donations for the Sabarkantha zone, region, and Kendriya Samaj. They have also organized group weddings and recently purchased 3.5 acres of land. Notably, none of the properties owned by the society in this area are associated with Satpanthi beliefs. They are entirely independent Sanatanis.

This region of Sanatan autonomy has produced passionate advocates for the Central Samaj and Yuva Sangh. Those who previously held communal or mawalist ideologies and ignored the Central Samaj’s work are now inspired by the achievements of this area and are motivated to join the Central Samaj.

Takhatgarh: Sanatan’s Tankar

On Monday, March 9, 1925 (Phagan Vad 14, Samvat 1981), the Toran (archway) of Takhatgarh (formerly known as Hadmatiya Kampa) village was constructed by Elder Premji Punja. He was originally a Piranapanthi, but his middle son Velji Bapa came into contact with Saint Madhwatirtha of Vedanta Ashram – Valad and renounced Satpanth to become a devoted bearer of Sanatan Dharma. In Takhatgarh, they established an ashram called Madhav Kutir. They received support from ardent and zealous Sanatani Shamji Matadar within the village.

With the positive support from the Sanatani Samaj members, who overnight broke the khan (structure associated with Satpanth) in the village and established a Shivalaya (temple of Lord Shiva) there, instilled Sanatan values in the entire area and liberated the village of Takhatgarh from the influence of Satpanth. On January 27, 1939, the temple of Lord Lakshminarayan was consecrated in the village, with the presence of a team of saints from Ishwar Ashram-Vandhay and Ratanshibhai Khetani.

However, at some point, the Satpanthis made indirect efforts to regain influence in the village. In response, the elders and youth of the village came together in 1975 and, overnight, destroyed these efforts by removing food sheets and other materials associated with the Satpanthis. Since then, no younger Mukhi or elder from Pirana has been able to enter the village, showcasing the unwavering commitment to Sanatan values in this village.

Sanatan’s group wedding festival

This event is celebrated by the Sabar Kantha Zone Samaj on the day of Tulsi Vivah, and it involves a group wedding festival for all Sanatani families. So far, six marriage festivals have been successfully completed, during which 145 sons and daughters of Sanatan have entered into wedlock. These wedding festivals take place in various locations such as Himatnagar and Wadali, and they consistently feature the presence of representatives from the central society. This group wedding festival plays a crucial role in fostering a connection between the Kampa area and the central society.
