From December 1958, acting on the command of Maa Naina Devi Ji, his family's Kuldevi, he undertook the mission to renovate the Shri Baba Balaknath Ji temple, which was in a dilapidated state on Nanakpura Hill. By the grace of the Mother and the blessings of Goddess Saraswati, Pandit Ji was gifted with the art of singing. He began the temple's reconstruction using the funds earned from performing Jagrans and Chowkis. Through Pandit Ji's hard work and tireless efforts, the Baba Balaknath Temple is today approaching the pinnacle of fame. In this temple, every wish of the devotees is fulfilled.
