Held at Abhaysinhraje Sanskrutik Bhavan, Ajinkyatara Colony, Shendre Fata, Satara, the event witnessed an inspiring participation of over 250 mothers performing traditional Kanya Puja (worship of girls) for more than 45 minutes, honoring over 250 young daughters in a culturally rich and spiritually charged ceremony.
