Residents of Nathdwara will now be able to have Darshan of Shrinathji Prabhu by way of a ‘Shriji Green Card’, issued by the temple authorities. A start has been made by the issuing of 16 such cards.

These Shriji Greed Cards were distributed by Chiranjeevi Vishal Baba at Moti Mahal. Devotees from outside Nathdwara will have to obtain ‘Shriji Charan Cards”. The 16 inaugural Shriji Green Cards cards were handed out by Vishal Baba at Moti Mahal (Shrinathji Mandir), headquarters of the Nathdwara-based Vallabha Sampradaya.

To allow darshan, following correct Covid protocols during the first wave, the temple authorities had provided the facility of registration for residents of Nathdwara as well as outsiders. The details provided at that time will now be used for issuing the two types of cards – Shriji Green Card (For residents of Nathdwara) and Shriji Charan Card (For outsiders). The cards will be issued after the devotee registers for any of these cards. Card Holders will be allowed entry into the temple after showing the card. Cardholders do not have to show a vaccine certificate or an RTPCR negative report. Devotees without cards will need to show a photo ID and vaccination certificate to gain entry into the temple.

The Chief Executive Officer of the temple – Shri Jitendra Kumar Ojha said that to follow Covid guidelines during the first wave, the registration process of thousands of devotees had been done. The 16 Shriji Green cards issued are from those registrations. These cards are without cost. Shriji Charan cards will be given to those devotees who had paid INR 350/- and registered for the Bent (offering) queue. Also, the cards will be given to those who have had at least one dose of vaccine. The cards will be issued from a counter opposite Risala Chowk. Registration for new cards can also be done at that counter.

Shri Vishal Baba said the time of staying away for devotees has now passed and very soon Prabhu Shrinathji will give darshan to His devotees. All devotees are expected to and requested to get the cards made and come for darshan, strictly following all Covid guidelines.
