The Koli community has submitted a memorandum containing 14 demands against the administrator of the renowned Bagdana Guru Ashram in Bhavnagar district. According to a report by Sandesh, an important meeting of the Koli community was recently held at Bagdana Dham regarding serious issues of continuous injustice being meted out to community members by the ashram.
Community members have alleged that the Koli community was deliberately neglected even during the celebrations of Bapa's tithi, leading to significant anger and dissatisfaction within the community. Regarding this dispute, community leaders are meeting local residents of approximately 8 villages in person, and special 'khatla meetings' are being organised in villages to gather people's voices against the injustice.
In the past, when Manji Dada was alive, an administrator was appointed to handle the daily operations of the ashram due to his poor health. Since then, operations have been managed by administrators, but current decisions have caused resentment in the local community. To understand the situation in this matter, contact was also made with one of the administrators and the BJP MLA from Kandivali.
Bagdana Guru Ashram is a highly famous religious site located in Bhavnagar district. Previously, Manji Dada was associated with this ashram, and following his demise, the ashram is managed by administrators.
