“Due to health issue we had to change our pre decided programme and had to stay at Jaipur. But in short duration, all preparation has been completed for our stay and many useful and important programmes are also accomplished here. This is possible due to devotion, alertness and faith of Jaipur’s local people, coordinators and the arrangement committee. This stay is also beneficial from health point of view. All monks and nuns have got the health benefits and we are departing from Jaipur after being healthier."
