Our Organisation

Bharat Sevashram Sangha was founded in 1917 by the patriot-saint Acharya Swami Pranavanandaji Maharaj, as a spiritual and service-oriented organisation dedicated to seva, education and disaster relief. The founder's own connection to Prayagraj (then Allahabad) dates back to 1924, when he took his formal monastic vows (sanyas) here during the historic Allahabad Kumbh Mela.

The Prayagraj centre carries forward this legacy of service and spiritual hospitality for pilgrims and visitors to the city. Bharat Sevashram Sangha has branches across India, including Odisha and other cities — this page is specifically about the Prayagraj branch; see our FAQ or our full guide to how the Prayagraj branch relates to other branches, or view our accommodation for room details. To reach the Prayagraj branch, contact us or find the location.
