Why Pavitrotsavams

May be mistakes are made in the temple either by the pilgrims or the staff. In order to prevent any damage to the sanctity of the temple due to such things, it is a custom to hold sacred festivals for three days every year. Programs like temple cleaning and sanctification are performed during these holy festivals.

On first day Pavitra Pratista, second day Pavitra Samarpana and on the last day Pavitra Purnahuti will be performed.

The Grihastas can participate on the payment of Rs.750 wherein two pilgrims will be allowed.
