The Act was passed soon after the cruel death of Dr Narendra Dabholkar. Though Govt of Maharashtra did not support the Act whole heartedly while implementing the same, ANS took initiative to put into practice by way of poster exhibition, conducting lecture on the Act and conducting rallies etc. In fact these efforts were proved to be fruitful and number of victims came forward to lodge the FIR in various police stations. The list is as under:

It may be seen that the cases include complaints against persons irrespective of religion and caste. Out of 104 cases there are 19 cases by and against Muslim religion. The threat of the Act resulted into stopping the rampant publicity of Bangali Baba in trains and promotional efforts of astrologers and godmen in rural areas of Mahrashtra. ANS has to go a very long way to make the Act successful and free the society from superstitious activities.
