This year under the initiative more than 1.5 million warkaris (pilgrims) received medical assistance during the Ashadhi Wari 2024 in Pandharpur.

The initiative was launched last year and is spearheaded by health minister, Tanajirao Sawant, which redefined the Pandharpur pilgrimage.

Over 1,512,774 people received medical care at this mega event, supported by a dedicated team of 7,500 doctors and paramedics.

The camp offered a range of healthcare services to warkaris and devotees, ensuring timely and efficient medical care throughout the pilgrimage route.
