In 1949 the birthday day of Babaji Bhagwan was celebrated at the Bir Rai Bahadur Narain Das who lived at 21, Pusa Road had acquired great faith and devotion in Shri Nathji during the days that Shri Nathji had spent with Shri Bhutt at 2, Pusa Road. He now offered the use of his house at 21 Pusa Road for the celebration of the Birthday of Shri Babaji Maharaj.
And it was there, in the open lawn of his house that the devotees gathered together to celebrate the birthday in the biting cold of Delhi. It was to be a very special occasion for Shri Nathji.
This is the current photo of of the plot 21, Pusa Road, New Delhi. Since 1999, an IAS institute by name of Drishti is operating from here. It seems the decedents of Rai Bahadur Pandit Narain Das had sold the property long back. I was able to find online that in 1955 Rai Bahadur Narain Das of Delhi" was a founding member for the Delhi branch of the League of Devotees. The League was a religious organization co-founded by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, who wrote to Narain Das about the immediate need to secure office and residential space for the group's workers. At the time, Rai Bahadur Narain Das still resided at 21 Pusha Road in New Delhi.
