Dashapalla,8th Oct 2025: – Gajalaxmi Puja was celebrated with great pomp and grandeur in several places across both the urban and block areas of Dashapalla. Particularly, the Laxmi Puja near the Laxmi Bazaar beside the hospital square under Dashapalla NAC has a long-standing tradition. This puja has been organized for the past 30 years through the efforts of the local businessmen.
Besides this, the festival has also been observed in other areas such as Kunjabangarh, Sat Patana, Trinath Bazaar, and in Ulishahi village under Kalasakhman Panchayat for the last 10 years, strictly following rituals and traditions.
From the Kalas Yatra (ritualistic procession) to the immersion of the idol, cultural programs are held every evening, accompanied by distribution of prasad (holy offerings). Residents of Ulishahi village, Ulishahi market, and members of the Bajrangbali Youth Association actively participated and contributed to the organization of these events.
According to Nityananda Nayak, the secretary of the association, the idol immersion will be carried out on the upcoming Wednesday.
