On this occasion, memorandums were submitted in 5,410 tehsils nationwide to the President, Prime Minister, Governors, and Chief Ministers through Tehsildars and SDMs. People also participated in the campaign by giving missed calls as part of a nationwide outreach.

In Jaipur district, despite the scorching heat, thousands participated in events organized at various locations. A grand procession began from Siyaramdas Ji Ki Bagichi on Sikar Road after performing rituals for cow worship. The procession culminated in a सभा at Adarsh Vidya Mandir in Ambawadi.

Youths, women, and cow devotees joined in large numbers, raising slogans such as “Give Mother Cow the status of National Mother” and “Ban cow slaughter.”

At the venue, devotional songs and discourses by saints were organized. Due to Mohini Ekadashi, several saints and devotees observed fasts and attended the program without food and water. A delegation of saints submitted the memorandum to the Sub-Divisional Officer.

Effective coordination keeps Collectorate area traffic-free
