Shri Kalri Jain Tirth: Shantinath Dada and Naminath Dada, four kilometres from Becharaji in north Gujarat.
Shri Shantinath Dada's derasar, about 160 years old. Pratishtha on Maha Sud 10.
Kalri is a small village in Becharaji taluka of Mehsana district, about four kilometres from the Bahucharaji temple. Its story is older and larger than its size: local tradition remembers it as the seat of a Solanki Rajput house, as the village whose family served Bahuchar Mata at Becharaji, as the birthplace of Vachhraj Dada, and as the home of a Jain Sangh whose families still return to its derasar.
Calculated from sunrise and sunset at Kalri. Times elsewhere differ by a few minutes; follow your own Sangh's panchang where it differs.
