Every participant must be registered individually before joining the Yatra.

🌐 How to Register

Those uncomfortable with online registration may take the help of their counsellors or facilitators to complete the process.

💳 Payment Details

Payment must be made immediately after registration, using one of the following methods:
- UPI

Registration will be confirmed only after successful payment.

⏰ Why Early Registration Matters

Early registration helps the Yatra Committee plan better and, if needed, book additional accommodation for all participants.
Please register as soon as possible to assist in smooth logistics and planning.

🚫 Non-Transferable Policy

Each registration is strictly non-transferable.
Once registered, you cannot interchange your slot with another devotee without prior approval from the Yatra Committee.

Accomodation in Pandharpur

How to Book

Devotees opting for accommodation should visit the official Yatra website:
👉 https://yatra.vaisnavaswami.com
and select the type of room they would like to stay in.

👥 Group Accommodation

For groups of devotees wishing to stay together, one group member can book accommodation for the entire group.
Please ensure all group members are registered for the Yatra before booking rooms.

🤝 Coordinator’s Responsibility

Counsellors and coordinators are requested to help arrange accommodation for devotees under their care.
They may appoint sub-coordinators who are familiar with the devotees’ situations, age, and health conditions, to ensure appropriate room assignments.

Travel within Pandharpur

🚐 Travel to and from Pandharpur

Devotees are expected to arrange their own travel from their place of residence to Sri Pandharpur Dham and back.
The only exception is for those who opt for the official travel option from Pune to Sri Pandharpur Dham, which can be selected during registration on the website:
👉 https://yatra.vaisnavaswami.com

🚐 Internal Travel During Yatra

The Yatra Committee will arrange internal transportation for visiting Sri Vitthal–Rukmini Temple.
For visiting other holy places in and around Pandharpur, devotees are requested to make their own travel arrangements.

Fine Print

⚖️ Corrective Action

All participants are expected to strictly follow the instructions given by the Yatra Committee and its sub-committees (such as security, prasadam, accommodation, and transport). These guidelines are designed to ensure the safety, harmony, and smooth conduct of the Yatra for everyone.

🌧️ Force Majeure

If the Yatra needs to be cancelled or modified due to natural calamities or other unavoidable circumstances, the Yatra Committee will make every effort to refund the appropriate amount, after deducting expenses already incurred toward arrangements made up to that point.
