    Mumbai (Maharashtra), April 6, 2012: Akhila Karnataka Jain Sangh celebrated ‘Mahaveer Jayanti’ at Pejavar Mutt auditorium, Prabhat Colony, Santa Cruz (East), on Thursday April 5.

    The chief priest Mahipal Shaha performed various religious celebrations during ‘Mahaveer Jayanti’.

    Mahipal Shaha, in his message to the devotees, said that the celebrations should not be restricted to one day.  “The ideals and teachings of Bhagwan Mahaveer have to be practiced every day to set an example for new generations to lead a meaningful life,” he said.
