On the holy occasion of Adhik Jeth Poonam (Jagdishchandra Bariya) Jaggudada's second Lok Darbar: A grand 'Vadilotsav' was celebrated by worshipping 108 elders ( A unique and emotional social initiative)

In our culture, elders have been given the status of God, but with the changing times, these rituals seem to be getting blurred somewhere. In such a time, a very inspiring program was recently organized that shows a new path to the society and irrigates the rituals. On the holy and auspicious day of Adhik Jeth Poonam, the second 'Lok Darbar' was grandly organized by Lokladila Jaggudada. This Lok Darbar was not limited to just public complaints or discussions, but turned into a wonderful 'Vadilotsav', the echo of which is being heard throughout the diocese.

Royal honor to 108 elders
Around 108 elders above the age of 70 from the surrounding areas were specially invited to this grand festival. All these elders were honored by Jaggudada in a very dignified and royal manner. To ensure that there was no lack of respect for the elders, they were:

A memento was presented by wrapping them in traditional saris.
They were welcomed with a fragrant bouquet.
A Tulsi plant, a symbol of purity, was gifted and a message of environment was also given.

The elders were respectfully presented with a cover (gift) and a certificate of honor and their life experiences were appreciated.

Washed feet and received blessings: The elders became emotional
The most touching moment of the program was when Jaggudada himself washed the feet of all the elders on stage. Seeing this scene that revealed the highest values of Indian culture, the eyes of all the people present there were moist. Seeing such immense love, respect and dedication towards the elders, the grandparents were moved.

"We have seen such a grand and respectful program for the elders for the first time in our lives in 70 to 80 years of our lives. We will never forget the respect and honor that Jaggudada has given us today."

Emotions of the elders present
A warm and inspiring message of blessings
At the end of the program, the elders became very emotional and they conveyed their heartfelt blessings to Jaggudada and his entire team in a soft voice. The words of prayers and blessings coming from the mouths of the elders created a divine atmosphere in the program.

This second Lok Darbar of Jaggudada has proven to be a beacon for the society. Elders are the pride of our family and society, and it is our duty to respect them - this Vadilotsav has proven that. For this grand organization, Jaggudada's commendable work is being widely praised in the entire parish.
