City Anchor: Two friends feed cows and dogs by collecting donations of bread from 400 houses every day by chanting 'Jai Shri Ram'

Two such people from Rajkot, who have been doing their labor for the last 20 years, collect rotis in 400 houses for cows and dogs and feed them two and a half meals a day. In this good work, both the friends have also made those who donate bread sitting at home by adding their selfless service and labor to the devotees of virtue. Service does not require a lot of money but a firm commitment. This has been proved by both friends. The sevayagna was started around 20 years ago by Jitendrabhai Pranjivanbhai Vyas and his friend Bhikhabhai Kachrabhai Savaliya, who live in Nandubagh Society near Triveni Gate, Sant Kabir Road in the city. The two friends collect more than two-and-a-half manas of rotis from 400 houses on foot at 7 p.m. every evening with bags on their shoulders and serve them as food to various gaushalas as well as stray dogs and cows. As the sound of 'Tukde Ram' echoes in the streets, mothers and sisters stand in the courtyard of the house with rotis in their hands. The donation of bread is accepted by both the friends by saying 'Tukde-Ram' and 'Jai Shri Ram'. According to an old adage, 'There is a rift over religion, but there is no need for service and resolve', these two friends also lead a very normal life. However, he devotes time to daily service. In addition to gauseva, they are also given batuk meals twice a month. Indeed, service does not require a lot of money, but firm loyalty. This has been proved by both these friends. Jitendrabhai owns his own small puncture cabin, while Bhikhabhai works as a labourer in a marketing yard. The two friends were inspired for this good work by staying in the company of the saint of Kanesara in Jasdan taluka and his guru Dehabhagat. Customers coming to the shop keep saying 'Jai Shri Ram', that is my identity Jitendrabhai said, "I have been doing this service work for the last 20 years. Now, even if people come to my shop for a puncture on a bicycle, they keep saying 'Jai Shri Ram'. That's just my identity. I have a son among my children, who is divyang. But I wish that even after me, one of the two nephews from my house would continue to do this work.
