Description
Karaga Festivals
The historical Karaga Festival is thought to have started under the Chola Dynasty and has developed throughout the centuries, incorporating folk, cultural, and religious aspects. A priest carries the Karaga, a painted pot with symbolic meaning, as part of the festival's main ritual. The Karaga is decorated with neem leaves, flowers, and other lucky objects. According to the Hindu calendar, the Karaga Festival normally occurs in April, specifically with the full moon known as Chaitra Purnima. A large parade that happens in the centre of Bangalore is the major attraction.
