The Trust received total donations worth ₹4,10,77,000, which included cash and ornaments of gold and silver, he said.
“The offerings were received in donation boxes, online, during a procession in the city on October 3, also through donation counters set up on the temple premises. Some devotees gave cheques, demand drafts, while some others paid cash for free meal service,” Jadhav said.
According to its accounts officer Dilip Zirpe, the Sansthan also received 9,000 notes of foreign currency in the donation boxes.
