Our History
A heritage that began before 1900
The history of Shree Gurjar Kshatriya Kadiya Samaj – Mumbai dates back to before 1900. Our caste members came to Mumbai from Saurashtra (Kathiyawad), Gujarat's three districts of Junagadh, Amreli and Bhavnagar for their livelihood and occupation, and settled here. As years passed, in the year 1944 our community people gathered together and formed an association which was named Shree Mumbai Gurjar Kshatriya Kadiya Mahajan.
In the year 1950, when the Mumbai Public Trust Act 1950 came into force, the caste brothers of our society decided to register our society under the said act in order to achieve the aims and objectives of the community in an orderly manner and for the benefit of the community.
Shree Mumbai Gurjar Kshatriya Kadiya Mahajan Trust was registered under Registration No. A-2052 – Mumbai dated 26.05.1954 under the Mumbai Public Trust Act.

Deepakbhai Nanubhai Chauhan
President, Shree Gurjar Kshatriya Kadiya Samaj – Mumbai
Dear members of our Samaj family,
A heartfelt welcome to the official digital community website of Shree Gurjar Kshatriya Kadiya Samaj – Mumbai, www.kadiyasamajmumbai.org.
This website is not merely a digital platform — it is a strong digital bridge that connects all seven of our local centres, our families, and our shared resolve of unity, cooperation and progress.
Our Trust works tirelessly across unity, education, health, financial support and the all-round development of the community. By blending traditional values with modern technology, we are committed to building an organised, empowered and self-reliant Samaj.
To make our Samaj even stronger digitally, I make two humble appeals to every family:
- Become an official member of the Samaj — If you are not yet a member, download the membership form from the website and submit it at your local centre.
- Register your family in the 2026 Digital Census — This digital database will help connect families with one another, open new employment and career opportunities for our youth, and give businesspeople, entrepreneurs and professionals fresh avenues for networking, cooperation and growth.
With the mantra ‘Not I – We’, the progress of the whole Samaj is our shared responsibility.
Your cooperation, trust and active participation are the true strength of our Samaj. Together, let us share our knowledge, skills, experience, resources and opportunities to build a more united, progressive and self-reliant community for generations to come.
Warmest wishes to you all for good health, happiness, prosperity and a peaceful life.
With warm regards,
Deepakbhai Nanubhai Chauhan

Spiritual Heritage
Our revered Guru — Param Pujya Sant Shree Shamji Bapu & the sacred guru-seat, Satadhar Dham
॥ Guru Brahma, Guru Vishnu, Guru Devo Maheshwarah ॥ ॥ Guru Kripa Hi Kevalam ॥
In Indian culture the Guru holds the highest place — not merely a giver of knowledge, but a true guide to sanskar, spirituality, right conduct and the values of life. The guru-parampara is an unbroken flame of devotion, selfless service, humanity and divine sanskar that lights up the community generation after generation. Every community has its own spiritual identity, guru lineage and a priceless heritage of sanskar. For our Samaj, the centre of this sacred legacy is Param Pujya Sant Shree Shamji Bapu and Satadhar Dham — the support of truth.
॥ Jai Aapa Giga ॥ ॥ Jai Shamji Bapu ॥ ॥ Jai Jivraj Bapu ॥
Our humble, heartfelt salutations at the feet of Param Pujya Sant Shree Shamji Bapu and the sacred guru-parampara of Satadhar.
Satadhar Dham
A two-century tradition of selfless humanitarian service, free annakshetra and cow-care in the lap of Girnar, Saurashtra.
Guru Parampara
The living lineage from Param Pujya Aapa Giga Bapu through Param Pujya Shamji Bapu to Param Pujya Jivraj Bapu and Param Pujya Vijay Bapu.
Punyatithi Mahotsav
