    Pandharpur Medical Camp is mainly an offering of gratitude to the Dabbawalas of Mumbai and to the Warkaries (The pilgrims) who walk barefoot all the way from Dehu Road to Pandharpur which is about 250 kms.

    Established in 1890 and dressed in a traditional white outfit and wearing the traditional Gandhi Cap, the strong army of around 5,000 Dabbawalas are the people who make sure that 200,000 people get their lunch on time at their offices or schools every day from home.

    The Warkaries are devotees from across Maharashtra and nearby areas that walk on foot to Pandharpur, wearing holy basil beads and singing the glories of God. When they reach Pandharpur they bathe in the sacred Bhima River before visiting the temple.

    Upon the desire of HH Radhanath Swami, the Hospital offers medical help for their simplicity and devotion. Since it’s inception it has screened over 639,149 patients.
