UTTARANCHAL DISASTER

With great regret hereby we inform that few days ago unprecedented cloudburst, heavy rainfall & flash-flood struck Uttaranchal. This caused complete devastation around many places including Gaurikund and Kedarnath, wiping away large amount of buildings and living beings. The Devbhumi Branches of Bharat Sevashram Sangha have suffered the hit, and especially the Ashrams at Kedarnath and Gaurikund are totally washed away. Among thousands of suffering souls few of the Sannyasis, Brahmacharis and other persons working for Bharat Sevashram Sangha are missing.

Our Swamiji of Mumbai Branch – Swami Prashantanandaji immediately went to Haridwar to manage the rescue work, to provide shelter for the victims, to stand there with the volunteers and try to provide whatever he can for the suffering persons.

We request everyone to pray for the stranded suffering persons, and for the hapless missing persons.
