After a two year break due to Covid-19 pandemic, the Govinda Pathaks across the city begun practicing for making human pyramids almost two months ago. Jai Jawan Govinda Pathak in Jogeshwari, the group that holds a record for making nine-tier human pyramid, has decided to make helmets compulsory for Govindas from their group who would be using bikes for travelling to different spots for Dahi Handi.
"We will start the day with traditional puja and then visit different locations to break handis. There will also be a small briefing for the Govindas on their safety measures. We have also decided to make helmets compulsory for the Govindas who will be travelling on the bikes as the safety of the Govindas is also important," Jai Jawan coach Sandeep Dhawle told mid-day.com.
