Everyone of the attendees completed the 99 Yatra event at the Shatrunjay Mahatirth. At first many of these attendees felt this activity wasn't possible to finish, but with Shree Adinath Krupa and Acharya Bhagwants' blessing and support of fellow yatris each member was able to complete the 99 Yatra event.
