Niilakantha Divas is observed by Margiis every year. Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar himself suggested to observe this day to express sentient anger against those sinful forces. Margiis on this day focus not on the fact that Sarkar was poisoned but rather on the fact that he survived. It is a day when they do food distribution to the needy with special food.
