Terms & Conditions

By using the Jan Sahyog Sangathan website or submitting a registration or contribution form, you agree to these Terms & Conditions.

These terms apply to Chhath Puja registration, Prasad registration, optional monetary donations, physical Prasad contributions and Prasad distribution activities.

Puja participation registration is free.

• Participants must provide accurate registration information.
• Registration may be completed for a family.
• Registration helps organizers estimate attendance and plan arrangements.
• Puja registration does not automatically issue a Prasad collection pass.
• Participants should follow event instructions and safety arrangements.

Regular Prasad registration is free and does not require a donation.

• Each accepted Prasad registration is associated with a family pass.
• The pass may be displayed digitally or printed.
• Participants must present the pass during Prasad distribution.
• Each pass is valid for one successful redemption only.
• Duplicate or previously redeemed passes will not be accepted.

Monetary donations are voluntary. No payment is required for Puja registration or Regular Prasad registration.

• Donations may be made using the published UPI payment details.
• Donors should verify the UPI recipient before completing payment.
• A UPI transaction reference may be requested for verification.
• Submitting a reference does not automatically confirm payment.
• Donations do not guarantee an income-tax deduction or other tax benefit.

Participants should not share their UPI PIN, OTP or banking password with organizers or volunteers.

Special Prasad eligibility is determined according to the qualifying contribution threshold established by the organizers.

• Only successfully verified qualifying donations are counted.
• Pending, rejected or unverified transactions do not qualify.
• Special Prasad status is assigned after administrative verification.
• Eligibility does not create a second or additional collection pass.
• The same one-time redemption rule applies to Special Prasad passes.

Prasad collection passes use QR codes for verification during distribution.

• Each pass is linked to a registered family.
• QR codes must be presented to an authorized volunteer.
• Each valid pass can be redeemed only once.
• Previously redeemed, cancelled or invalid passes are not accepted.
• Passes must not be duplicated or misused to claim additional Prasad.

Registered users may retrieve an existing Prasad pass using the website pass-retrieval process.

Mobile OTP verification is used for retrieving a previously issued pass. OTP verification is not required for initial Puja or Prasad registration.

Users must provide the registered mobile number and complete the required verification.

Individuals may submit requests to contribute physical Prasad items such as fruits, sweets or other suitable offerings.

• Contribution requests are subject to organizer coordination.
• Submitting a request does not mean an item has already been received.
• Organizers may contact contributors regarding quantity, timing and collection.
• Items should be suitable for safe distribution.
• Organizers may decline items that are unsuitable or cannot be accommodated.

Jan Sahyog Sangathan may review, restrict or cancel registrations and passes where there is reasonable evidence of misuse.

• False registration details may result in cancellation.
• Fraudulent payment references may be rejected.
• Duplicate pass redemption attempts will not be accepted.
• Organizers may request verification to resolve registration disputes.

Event activities, collection arrangements and Prasad distribution schedules may be adjusted due to operational requirements, weather, safety or circumstances outside the organizers' control.

Participants should follow official announcements and instructions from authorized organizers and volunteers.

Donors who believe they made a duplicate or incorrect payment should contact the organizers with the relevant transaction details.

Any refund or correction request will be reviewed individually, subject to transaction verification, applicable law and the circumstances of the payment.

Submitting a request does not automatically guarantee a refund.

Registration and contribution information is handled in accordance with the website Privacy Policy.

Information may be used for registration, event coordination, donation verification, pass validation and Prasad distribution.

For more information, please read our Privacy Policy.

Organizers will make reasonable efforts to coordinate event activities and Prasad distribution.

Participants are responsible for providing accurate information, safeguarding their passes and following reasonable event instructions.

Nothing in these terms excludes rights or responsibilities that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable law.

These Terms & Conditions may be updated to reflect changes in event arrangements, registration procedures, technology or applicable requirements.
