In 1978 Swami Deekshanand Saraswati organised the first bahu kund yajna with 100 havan kunds built for a week-long Yajur Veda Mahayajna at the Raisethorpe Arya Samaj grounds. Many families participated in this auspicious and momentous event. The spirit of “Back to the Vedas” was rekindled in the Arya Samaj community.
