Satya Narayan Katha

In 1945, during a meeting that took place in Kadiawad, it was decided that every year on Bhadarva Sud 4, a Satya Narayan Katha will be performed at the Mandir. The one who bids the most would get the honor of sitting in the katha.

A committee was therefore created consisting of the following eight people:
Maganbhai Dayalbhai Mistry
Dayalbhai Ranchhodbhai Mistry
Babubhai Morarbhai Patel
Naranbhai Kikabhai Patel
Pranjivan Nemabhai Patel
Nanubhai Bhanabhai Patel
Chhaganbhai Budhiyabha Patel
Gopalbhai Chhaganbhai Mistry
Here is a partial list of the people who took part in the Satya Narayan Katha, and who were privileged to sit in the katha:
