What was Damu Anna's specific role in the Ram Navami festival celebrations in Shirdi?

Damu Anna, a wealthy and devoted follower of Sai from Ahmednagar, played a key role in the annual Ram Navami festival. As detailed in Chapter 25, he had a long-standing vow to provide one of the two large new flags for the festival's procession. This was a tradition he upheld for many years with consistent love and devotion. The other flag was supplied by the Nimonkars. The chapter specifies that these flags were taken in a procession with musical instruments, starting from the house of Kondaji Sutara, and were eventually tied to the two ends of the Masjid, highlighting Damu Anna's significant and regular contribution to this important event.
