Celebrating 13 Glorious Years of Pratishtha Mahotsav – A Grand Success by Mahavir Foundation
Mahavir Foundation proudly marked the 13th anniversary of its Pratishtha Mahotsav in London with a spectacular five-day celebration, which drew over 5,000 visitors and left an indelible impression on all who attended.
The event was a true reflection of community spirit, devotion, and cultural vibrancy. A series of outstanding stage performances were delivered by the Pathshala children, Yuva and Youth Wings, Ladies Wing, and Mahavir Mandal. These performances highlighted the values, heritage, and spiritual essence of Jainism, and were met with enthusiastic applause and appreciation.
A special mention to Harshil and Moxit, whose soulful Bhavna, Sandhya Bhakti, and Saraswati Puja added deep spiritual resonance to the celebrations.
The arrangements and hospitality throughout the event were impeccable, with excellent food and facilities that made the experience seamless and enjoyable for all attendees.
A heartfelt thank you goes to all the participants, volunteers, and supporters who contributed tirelessly to the success of this grand event. Special gratitude is extended to Palak Shah and Dr. Saurabh Shah for their exceptional dedication and leadership.
