AGARTALA, Oct 11 (TIWN): Amid tight security arrangements, marking the formal conclusion of biggest festival- Durga Puja, the immersion worship (Vijaya Dashami) to Goddess Durga has been started in Tripura since morning.
To mark this occasion, teary eyed devotees bade an emotional farewell to the idols of goddess Durga. People from different community thronged Durga puja pandals to offer their tributes to the goddess on the last day of the five-day long festivity.
A vast number of married women decked in the ritualistic red-and-white sarees marked the event with the customary "Sindoor Khela" or smearing each other and the idols with red vermilion to prepare the goddess and her clan for their long journey to home, as dhaaks (traditional drums) played on in the background.
