Can Odia families from outside India perform Pind Daan at Gaya by proxy?

Yes. When an Odia family outside India cannot travel to Gaya in person, the Pind Daan can be performed by a proxy representative. Scripturally, the Garuda Purana permits a representative to perform the ceremony on behalf of the principal person (usually the eldest son) when the son genuinely cannot attend. Prayag Pandits performs proxy Pind Daan ceremonies with your full gotra details, ancestor names, and Odia Shraddha Paddhati followed correctly. You receive a video recording of the complete ceremony. The Sankalpa is recited in your name and gotra. WhatsApp coordination in Odia is available for NRI families. Contact us at +91 7754097777 to arrange.
