Safety Advisory: Emergency Medical Camp Locations on the Saswad to Jejuri Route

This concerns Jejuri

Medical Assistance for Varkaris

As the Sant Dnyaneshwar Maharaj Palkhi moves from Saswad towards Jejuri, health officials are setting up emergency medical camps along the route. It is a tough trek. Steep sections and continuous walking often lead to severe exhaustion and dehydration among Varkaris. Temporary medical facilities are fully operational now to keep every Mauli safe.

Camp Locations

  • Saswad Phata: A primary health desk offering first aid, rehydration solutions, and basic medicines for fever.
  • Zendewadi: A 24-hour medical tent equipped with stretchers and nursing staff to treat foot blisters and muscle cramps.
  • Jejuri Base: A larger medical facility located near the temple steps, supported by doctors and two standby ambulances.

Available Treatments and Ambulance Services

All Vitthal devotees receive free treatments at the medical camps. Medical personnel are supplying oral rehydration salts, pain relief medication, and bandages. Doctors strongly advise all Varkaris to drink sufficient boiled or filtered water during the walk. Two cardiac ambulances are stationed at Zendewadi and Jejuri. They are ready to handle severe health emergencies. The police bandobast along the route has dedicated a green corridor. Ambulances will pass through the massive crowds without delay.

Health Guidelines for the Route

Keep a steady pace. Varkaris are requested to rest immediately if they experience dizziness or chest pain. Dindi pramukhs have a clear job here. They must ensure older devotees stay hydrated and do not skip their routine meals. Does a Mauli require urgent attention? Contact the state medical helpline at 108. Police personnel deployed on the road are also ready. They are trained to guide devotees to the nearest medical camp.
