Saint leaders in Delhi promote fuel conservation, public transport, and sustainable living for India’s future.

Karauli Shankar Ji Maharaj.
In a powerful fusion of spirituality, patriotism, and environmental stewardship, India’s revered saint community has stepped forward to champion the nation's energy security. Aligning with the national vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi for environmental conservation, Sri Sri 1008 Mahamandaleshwar Poorna Guru Shree Karauli Shankar Dass Ji Maharaj (affectionately known as Karauli Shankar / Karauli Sarkar), alongside Jagatguru Swami Chakrapani Nandgiri Ji Maharaj and Acharya Shri Pramod Krishnam, led a historic public awareness initiative in the national capital.
In a remarkable and unprecedented move, Karauli Shankar Ji Maharaj voluntarily left behind his extensive security and vehicle convoy. Instead, the spiritual leaders traveled to the historic Amar Jawan Jyoti via a public auto-rickshaw and later boarded a local transport bus to attend the Sant Sansad at the Crowne Plaza, Mayur Vihar. The message was loud and clear: true national transformation begins when leaders lead by example.
