What was the initial interaction between the Sanyasi and Mamlatdar Dev regarding the donation for cow protection?

During their first encounter at a station in Dahanu, a Sanyasi approached Mamlatdar Dev to request help with a collection for cow protection. As described in Chapter 40, the Sanyasi pleaded his case, emphasizing the religious nature of the work. However, Dev declined to help at that moment. He explained that another collection was already in progress in the town, led by Raosaheb Narottam Sheti and the Nagarseth, to help the poor. Dev told the Sanyasi that the timing was unfavorable and advised him to return in two to four months, promising to consider the request at that later time.
