Who was Kondaji Sutara, and what was his specific role during the Ram Navami procession in Shirdi?

Kondaji Sutara is identified in Chapter 25 as the village carpenter whose house served a key function during the annual Ram Navami festival. His specific role was to provide the starting point for the flag procession. The text details that the procession, featuring the two large flags from the Nimonkars and Damu Anna, would commence from the house of Kondaji Sutara. From this location, accompanied by musical instruments, the procession would begin its journey through the village before the flags were ultimately tied to the ends of the Masjid.
