Kakasaheb Dixit's visit to Ahmednagar was initially for political reasons. Chapter 51 explains that he was campaigning for a seat in the Legislative Council and arrived in the city to gather public support from friends. Coincidentally, a horse show was also taking place in Ahmednagar at that time, attracting various people, including Balasaheb Mirikar, the Mamlatdar of Kopergaon. Once Kakasaheb completed his election-related work, his path became clear, and his sole focus shifted entirely to figuring out how he could get to Shirdi to meet Sai Baba.
