The monks walked barefoot from the house of Sarada Maa’s house in Bagbazar area of north Kolkata to the house of Swami Vivekananda located on Shimla Street. During an election rally in Hooghly district, the chief minister had commented against religious orders like Bharat Sevashram Sangha, Ramakrishna Mission and ISKCON.
