Chaitra Mela/ Chaitra Yatra at Tara Tarini Hill Shrine

Hill Shrine.



Chaitra Mela/ Chaitra Yatra is the most important among the festivals, celebrated at the Tara Tarini 

It takes place on each Tuesday of the month of Chaitra, i.e., during mid-March to mid-April (according to the English calendar). 
Lakhs of devotees come from every corner of world to have darshan of the Tara Tarini and perform their Manasika after fulfillment of their desires. 
Grand congregations take place on the first, second, third and fourth Tuesdays. 
On Tuesday, the shrine remains open for the Darshan of the deities from 1.00 AM (mid-night on Monday) till 11 PM (of Tuesday). 
During that period, Pahada (daytime rest) of the deities is confined to night-time only. 
Devotees come to offer the first bunch of hair of the newborn babies with the believe that goddesses Tara Tarini will protect the newborns from all evils and ensure their well-being.
