Grand Finale Golden Anniversary Celebration of BAPS Volunteer Services on 7 December at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad–Felicitating Selfless Service and Devotion of 100,000 BAPS volunteers

BAPS

The Karyakar Suvarna Mahotsav (1972-2022) celebrates and pays tribute to 50 years of selfless and dedicated social and spiritual service by thousands of BAPS karyakars (volunteers), young and old, male and female. Though satsang activities for children, teenagers, youths and adults were begun by YogijiMaharaj in the early 1950s, a formal organizational structure was first implemented in 1972 under the guidance and with the blessings of Pramukh Swami Maharaj. Since then, under the guidance of the SatsangPravrutti Central office (SPCO) for teenagers, youths and adults, and the Bal Pravrutti Central Office (BPCO) for children, these karyakars have contributed their time, energy and resources to promote the values of selfless service and devotion revealed by Bhagwan Swaminarayan and the Gunatit gurus.

Over the decades, YogijiMaharaj, Pramukh Swami Maharaj and Mahant Swami Maharaj have personally guided and inspired the karyakars to progress, both in their personal spirituality and in rendering community services.

In Surat, on 28 January 2024, Mahant Swami Maharaj inaugurated the year-longKaryakarSuvarnaMahotsav celebrations, which will conclude with the grand finale celebration assembly on
7 December 2024 at the Narendra Modi Stadiumin Ahmedabad.

Volunteers from various parts of India and across the world, including the UK, Europe, the USA, Australia, and the Middle East, will come together to attend this historic event.
