The ISKCON, Mayapur, is the world headquarters of the sect.
As per established Vaishnava scriptures, Lord Narsimha Dev is revered as the supreme protector of all beings.
The main objective of organising this special prayer was to pray to Lord Narsimha Dev for protecting the entire human race of the world from all types of pandemic viruses and bestow peace in society, he said.

Later Harinam Sankirtan was performed by the devotees.
