Big updates of Pramukh Swami's birth centenary festival
Pramukh Swami was born in 1921. Today his birth centenary is being celebrated. PM Modi will inaugurate the ceremony.
This event is going to last for a month. Swaminarayan Sansthan (BAPS) has millions of followers across the world.
BAPS will claim this event to be included in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest event with zero casts.
Prumakh Swami Nagar is built on 600 acres. More than 300 farmers have given their land for the festival for two years.
PMs, deputy PMs and thousands of ministers from 15 countries including the Sheikh of Dubai will attend the ceremony.
Design of extraterrestrial city in discussion
The design of this supernatural city is the most talked about. The special thing about this is that you do not have to search for the main things needed. It is automatically visible to you. Shri Swaroop Das Swamiji, the 6th pass designer, has also designed Delhi Akshardham Temple. It also had a major contribution to the design of Gandhinagar Akshardham. He says that he does not know computers. Draw a design on paper with a pencil. It is easiest for them.
City of crores settled, zero expenditure
That is, whatever is being built or is coming in this city... everything is of charity. Whatever people are working, it is only out of service. With the selfless cooperation of more than 300 farmers and builders, this city has been built with the service of more than 50 thousand Hari devotees for 2 months on the acquired land. Many of them even left their jobs for this work. The entire city has been set up in such a way that all these things will be donated after the festival is over. Whoever has the land, it will be returned. For such a large-scale festival on the 'Zero Costing' concept, it is believed that the name will be registered in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Owners of 5000 crores are also among the volunteers
Goral Ajmera, the daughter-in-law of the Ajmera family with assets worth 5000 crores, is also included in the Shramdaan for the city. He also got minor injuries during work, but still, he did not leave work. Apart from these, the daughter of Diamond King Lavji Badshah of Surat, Anish Patel owner of Vimal Dairy of Zydus, Yogesh Patel of Syntex, and many others are involved.
55 lakh devotees including 3 lakh NRIs
55 to 60 lakh people including three lakh NRIs will be present at the festival. Rooms have been booked in 90 percent of all five-star hotels and 70 percent of hotels of different categories in Ahmedabad. According to an estimate, more than 20 thousand rooms have been booked.
