Jabalpur, India – The Hindu New Year, also known as Chaitra Nav Varsh, is one of the most significant events on the Hindu calendar. This year, the celebration took place at Gwarighat Jabalpur and was organized by former IAS and former municipal corporation commissioner of Jabalpur, Shri Ved Prakash.

The event attracted thousands of people from all over the city and beyond, who came to participate in the various rituals and prayers that were conducted. The celebration began with the traditional sound of the shankhnaad, followed by the offering of water (ardh) to the rising sun. This was believed to bring prosperity and good fortune in the coming year. Sanskrit scholars then conducted the Swastiwachan, a traditional prayer that calls for blessings and protection from the gods.

The celebration was led by a number of Hindu priests, including Mahamandleshwar Akhileshwaranad and Narsinghdas Maharaj, who were felicitated by Shri Ved Prakash through his foundation, Lakshyabhedi. The priests led a procession of Mahaarti, a devotional song sung in praise of the gods. The celebration concluded with the beautiful sound of the shehnai and kirtan by representatives of the Isckon temple.

Shri Ved Prakash, the man behind the event, took an oath to continue celebrating the Hindu New Year and to preserve and promote Hindu culture and tradition. He emphasized the importance of not falling into the trap of the western narrative and expressed his hope that more people would join him in this endeavor.

Shri Ved Prakash is a well-known figure in Jabalpur, having brought about major developmental changes during his term as municipal commissioner. He placed a strong emphasis on environmental conservation, which led to the Dumna Nature Reserve Project, the second-largest urban forest in the country. Shri Ved Prakash’s efforts have been widely appreciated by the citizens of Jabalpur, and his foundation, Lakshyabhedi, continues to work towards promoting and preserving Hindu culture and tradition in the city.

The grand celebration of Chaitra Nav Varsh at Gwarighat Jabalpur was a testament to Shri Ved Prakash’s dedication to the city and its people. The event not only celebrated the start of the Hindu New Year but also showcased the city’s rich cultural heritage and traditions. It was a proud moment for the citizens of Jabalpur to see their city being celebrated in such a grand way, thanks to the efforts of Shri Ved Prakash and his team.

Scott Belsky once said, “it’s not about ideas. It’s about making ideas happen”.

To make an idea happen, people require a chance and a nudge of belief from people with expertise. Popular B School of Hyderabad, VJIM just did that by providing a platform to students with entrepreneurial bent of mind to showcase their start-up ideas at “Ignitron”.

Ignitron was part of a three-day event of MILAN 2023 where an inter college business plan competition was held. ‘Manifestation of dreams’ being the theme of the competition, where contestants had to come up with a business plan which is innovative as well as be a possible solution to a problem.

All the teams went through a preliminary round where they explained the basics of their business plan. By the end of the 1st round, 5 teams qualified for the final round. The final round was judged by Dr Zahoor Ullah, the Chief Innovation Officer and Incubation officer at Aleap We hub, and Mr Vijay Bawara, Senior director – of start-up innovation at T-hub.

Contestants created unique pitches on diverse topics and put their best foot forward while the judges brought in fresh perspectives and shared their insights. The one pitch that fascinated the judges was from the group Mangaa – the team that hailed from Manipur and presented a business plan that reflected the soul of Manipur and stood by the theme “manifestation of dreams”.

Every pitch seemed as interesting as the other. From the use of blockchain in food services, to websites that can help in the creation of apps, and use of A.I. in the creation of models for construction etc.

The final presentations ended up in a tie. The team from Manipur, led by Okram Diamond from VIMIT Collage, Manipur and team from VNRVJIT, led by Hruthik Kumar and Abhiram shared the title and won prize money of Rs. 30,000.

Contestants noted down recommendations and suggestions from the judges on the business plans.

“Ignitron at VJIM Hyderabad was an initiative to offer students with entrepreneurial mindset a platform where they can showcase their startup plans and get guidance from professionals towards strengthening their start-up ideas and get help in acquiring some seed funding too,” said Prof. Ch.

श्री राम सेवक कलाकार नकुल सैनी, भगवान् श्री राम के चरण पादुका, श्री राम जनम भूमि अयोध्या से लेकर 31 मार्च 2023 को फरीदाबाद आ रहे है, आप सभी से विनती है प्रार्थना करें और साथ दे की श्री राम चरण पादुका को इस नाले से ना गुजरना पड़े। 

फरीदाबाद हरियाणा स्थित संकट मोचन श्री बालाजी मंदिर अपने स्थापना के 25 वर्ष पूरे होने के उपलक्ष में 1 अप्रैल 2023 से 10 अप्रैल 2023 तक श्री राम कथा का आयोजन कर रहा है। साथ ही श्री राम कथा का संगीतमय नाट्ये प्रस्तुति दिल्ली थिएटर कलाकारों द्वारा ,की जाएगी। उसका सीधा प्रसारण बालाजी मंदिर के यूट्यूब चैनल पर किया जायेगा  

मंदिर मार्ग की हालत इस कदर ख़राब है मानो आपको नाले में से गुजर कर जाना पड़ता है आप तस्वीरो में देख सकते है, इस को साफ़ कराने के अनेक असफल  प्रयास किये जा चुके है 

इस बार नकुल एक अनोखे अंदाज़ में प्रयास कर रहे है 

उनका कहना है की जहां बुनियादी स्वच्छता आज 2023 में भी ना पहुँच पाई हो, उसे पाताल लोक या नरक लोक क्यों ना समझा जाएं ?

इंसानियत को तार तार करती यहाँ की व्यवस्था, विश्व के विशालतम प्रजातंत्र के केंद्र, राष्ट्रपति भवन से मात्र 39 किलोमीटर दूर का नज़ारा हर एक ज़िम्मेदार नागरिक को शर्म से डूब कर मरने को मजबूर करदेगा। 

मोटरसाइकिल पर अकेले यात्रा कर जनता से अनुरोध कर रहे है की इसे साफ़ और स्वच्छ करने के लिए भगवान् से प्रार्थना करें, 

इंसान तो इसे साफ़ करने में असमर्थ रहा शायद अब भगवान् ही कुछ कर सके। 

यह यात्रा पांडुपोल हनुमान मंदिर अलवर से आरम्भ होकर मेहंदीपुर बालाजी, मथुरा, वृन्दावन, हनुमान सेतु और मनकामेश्वर (लखनऊ), प्रयागराज, बनारस, गया जी, बोधगया, गोरखपुर, अयोध्या, कैची धाम, हरिद्वार, ऋषिकेश होते हुए फ़रीदाबाद मंदिर पहुचेगी। 

उनका प्रयास रहेगा नेपाल स्थित माँ जानकी मंदिर, पशुपतिनाथ मंदिर और शालिग्राम, कलि गण्डकी नदी के समक्ष भी प्रार्थना करने का यदि भारत नेपाल बॉर्डर पर उन्हें जाने की आज्ञा मिल पाए 

इस यात्रा से ॐ रिट्रीट सेंटर का आगाज़ हो रहा है, यह एक ख्याल है समाज को जीने लायक बेहतर बनाने का, आप सबका स्वागत है
