Temple in Mahanga mandal

The principal temple recorded for Mahanga mandal is Shiva mandir. No temple of this dedication is on record within Apilo itself.

Dussehra (Vijayadashami) in Odisha

Durga Puja, from Shashthi to Dashami, in community pandals rather than at home. Sandhi Puja at the join of Ashtami and Navami, Sindoor Khela and immersion on Dashami.

The regional form observed across West Bengal, Odisha, Assam. How any one household or village keeps it varies, and is not something recorded here.

Cuttack's silver medhas

Cuttack frames its goddesses against chandi medha — backdrops worked in the city's own silver filigree. The first was raised at Choudhury Bazar in 1956; they now stand twenty to twenty-five feet and carry between one and six quintals of silver, and by 2023 the city counted thirty-two of them. The filigree trade and the festival keep each other going.
