To many pilgrims, these centers are of great support. In places like Bengaluru, Hubli, Dharwad, Bagalkot, to name a few, the Akhila Bharat Madhwa Maha Mandala has many hostels all over Karnataka. These hostels offer priority to very-poor students and give them almost free lodging and food. It charges a very nominal monthly fee for regular students to operate its various operations. These hostels have the same feeling as Mutts, as the students begin their daily activities in the morning with Vishnu Sahasranam and then wear traditional white dhoti at lunch and dinner. The food given is of the type of Satwik, so it does not consist of non-vegetarian foods, onions, and garlic.
