BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha pays homage to the sadhu, volunteers, commandos, police and pilgrims who died during the terrorist attack in Akshardham.

Pujya Parmeshwar Swami renounced his home and a budding career in London, UK, to take initiation as a sadhu in 1981. Educated as a Mechanical Engineer, Pujya Parmeshwar Swami was serving at Ahmedabad and then Akshardham Gandhinagar for the last 22 years in the Maintenance Department. Always serving tirelessly and enthusiastically with a smile on his face, the loss of this beloved sadhu of Pramukh Swami Maharaj in the terrorist attack is irreplaceable.

Shri Mahendrabhai Marghabhai Patel, 33 year old, was offering his full time services as a guide in 'Sahajanand' exhibition hall at Akshardham, Gandhinagar, since its inauguration in 1992. He was a good orator, fond of spiritual discourses and staunch in moral disciplines. Mahendrabhai's death is a loss for his family and for all of us.

Shri Bachubhai Chandubhai Jadav of Sarol village was serving enthusiastically for the past 9 years at Akshardham. Serving as a guide and cleaner in 'Sahajanand' hall, 34 year old Bachubhai was a very soft and unassuming person who will be remembered fondly.

Shri Kiranbhai Babubhai Mali was a spot guide in Hall 1 for the last 4 years. Kiranbhai got interested in Satsang due to his father Babubhai, who died last year. The death of Kiranbhai at the young age of 27 has saddened all those who knew him and created an irreplaceable void in his family and the Sanstha.

Shri Bhaveshkumar Mulshankar Zhala of Aakrund (Sabarkantha), the youngest of the volunteers who died, was only 19 years old. Enthusiatic and ever-ready for service or spiritual work and worship, he was serving with dedication at Akshardham's Multimedia division for the past one year. His enthusiasm and hard work will be missed by all at Akshardham.

We pray to God for peace to the souls of the sadhu, volunteers, visitors, commandos and police who died in the attack, and for strength to their families to bear the loss.
