Jaganathpur observes Dussehra (Vijayadashami) on Tuesday, 20 October 2026, along with the rest of Odisha.

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 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.
By population, Jaganathpur ranks #119 of 151 villages in Athagad mandal.
