History Of Ayyappa Seva Sangam
In the year 1953 certain friends joined together and decided to have an Ayyappa Vilakku in Goregaon. It was the desire of the sponsors to make everyone a participant in this great function or rather to say, this must rise from the very grassroots. With this idea in mind, they went to every door in Goregaon collecting small amount of money from every family to the extent of money required for the function. It was in the month of December. Ayyappan Vilakku was conducted on a fixed date and time. This being the first of its kind in Goregaon, gave an opportunity to the residents of Goregaon to meet each other in one pandal in the name of Lord Ayyappa.
In the year 1964, three days programme connected with Ayyappan Vilakku was arranged. Professor P.Krishnakumar, Pudakkad, Kerala was invited to conduct discourses for the first three days. During 1973, Dharma Sastha Pooja Samiti was rechristined as Akhila Bharatha Ayyappa Seva Samgham, Branch No. 430 under the able guidence of Prof. Krishna Kumar and late Shri M.K.K. Nair, President of Akhila Bharatha Ayyappa Seva Samgham, Thiruvananthapuram. However, under their bye-laws, as the chances of progress for our organisation was meagre, it was decides to detach from them. Accordingly a separate organisation was registered as Ayyappa Seva Samgham Bombay, under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 registration number Bom 198/73 GBSD and the Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950 Regn. No. F.2942.
