FESTIVALS 

Among the several festivals celebrated in the temple, the Margali Utsav falling in Dec-Jan ranks first.  It ends with Arudra Darsanam, when the Utsava murthis are taken out in procession. 

The Car festival falling on the ninth day is a gala day, when religious ardor reaches the zenith.  The Chitral festival falling ire April-May too is a aranrl affair and celebrated on similar lines, but with a little difference on the ninth day, the principal deities are taken round the tank in a well-decorated float.  The last one is Avani Utsav falling in Sep-Oct, they are worth seeing and the impression they leave on the minds of the people are indelible and will remain evergreen beckoning further visits on and again, both for spiritual elevation and mental recreation.
