Here we present the celebrations conducted in the year 2012.
Vinayaka Chavithi
An idol is prepared of black soil by the youth members and children and is worshipped. The youth trained as professional sculptors are adding new ideas and making the idols all the more beautiful with the passing years. All the different ‘patri’ is carefully collected and is used in the puja. The ‘Nimajjanam’ is performed in the evening on the same day.
