AGARTALA, Oct 20 (TIWN): Tripura celebrates Govardhan puja in various Jagannath temples across state.

Every year after Diwali Amabasya, this festival is held.

At Agartala Jagannath Bari, devotees thronged to pray to Goverdhan. 

Govardhan puja, or Annakut or Annakoot (translated as “a mountain of food”) as it is also known, is a Hindu festival in which devotees prepare and offer a large variety of vegetarian food to the murtis of  God as a mark of gratitude.
