Cuttack: The Durga Puja immersion festival is going to held today. This will celebrated in various places of Odisha. When we talk about the Cuttack City, on October 14 over 120 idols of goddess Durga being worshiped in 170 puja mandaps will be immersed in Devigada of the Silver City.
A total of three makeshift ponds have been created along the Kathajodi River for the disposal of the idols. As the water level in the river is low, plans have been chalked out to use big pump sets to fill the pond with water.
Restrictions have been imposed for the Durga Puja immersion. Bans have been imposed on the use of DJ musics, laser lights, liquor and fire guns during the Visarjan. However, cultural programs have been allowed till 12 AM. Decision to this effect was taken at a peace committee meeting with the administration.
Cuttack Municipal Corporation (CMC) Mayor, local corporator and administrative officials inspected the preparation for the immersion of the idols at Devigada. CMC Mayor Subhash Singh said that special attention will be given to sanitation, drinking water and lighting in Devigada.
