Addressing the gathering, the Prime Minister expressed happiness at being present in the holy land of Dehu. The Prime Minister, referring to our scriptures, said that Satsang of the saints is the rarest privilege in human birth.

Prime Minister Modi will visit Maharashtra on June 14 and at around 1:45 PM, he will inaugurate Jagatguru Shrisant Tukaram Maharaj Temple in Dehu, Pune, a Prime Minister's Office (PMO) statement said. At around 4:15 PM, the prime minister will inaugurate Jal Bhushan Building and Gallery of Revolutionaries at the Raj Bhawan in Mumbai, it said.

The temple has got an ancient significance, said Sanjay More, one of the old trustees of the temple. “A scholar, Rameshwar Bhat, had compelled Sant Tukaram to immerse the books of verses written by Sant Tukaram in the Indrayani river. Sant Tukaram then told the scholar that whatever he had written were words of God, who was speaking through him. The scholar told him that if that was the case then the books would resurface unscathed. That is when Tukaram Maharaj sat for meditation on the stone close to the river. After 13 days, his books resurfaced on the river. Since then, the temple has become a holy place for devotees,” More added. The Prime Minister’s visit is an honour for the warkari sect, said More. “The entire town is eager to welcome him at the holy town on June 14,” he added. As per the Prime Minister’s Office, Modi will inaugurate the temple around 1:45 PM on Tuesday. The temple trust will present the city's famed 'pagdi' (turban) and shawl to Modi on the occasion. “Chiplaya, a traditional musical instrument, will be presented to Modi during the meeting. Many warkaris play the instrument during kirtan and bhajan. We are trying our best to make the event as traditional as possible,” said More.

All distinctive features of the old building have been preserved in the newly constructed building, the statement said. In 2016, the then Governor of Maharashtra, Vidyasagar Rao, had found a bunker in Raj Bhawan. It had earlier been used by Britishers as a secret storage for arms and ammunition. The bunker was renovated in 2019. The Gallery of Revolutionaries has been developed in the bunker as a one of its kind museum, to commemorate the contributions of freedom fighters and revolutionaries of Maharashtra. It offers tributes to the contributions of Vasudev Balwant Phadke, the Chaphekar brothers, Savarkar brothers, Madam Bhikaji Cama, V B Gogate, Naval Mutiny in 1946, among others.

These abhangas are easy to understand and recite which helped people unite, taught them values and virtues, and helped them praise the God. Sant (Saint) Tukaram was one of the most prominent saints amongst these saint poets.
