Ahead of the 2026 Dahi Handi celebrations in Navi Mumbai, the HELP Foundation has called on organizers and Govinda groups to prioritize safety and ensure emergency arrangements. The foundation has urged organizers to make safety belts mandatory for Govindas climbing the upper tiers of the human pyramid, and to have medical and emergency assistance readily available.

Gurunath Sathekar, founder of HELP Foundation, emphasized that while the festival is a time of enthusiasm and unity, the safety of every Govinda is paramount. In the event of an emergency, the foundation's ambulance and relief team will be ready to respond immediately if called upon. Emergency assistance contact numbers have been provided for residents in need of immediate help.

The foundation stressed the importance of a collective effort from organizers, Dahi Handi mandals, and Govinda teams to create a comprehensive safety mechanism for the celebrations.
