Citizens across the nation have kept up their travels since early Thursday morning to reach the homes of their elders and relatives. The immersion of the goddess and the conclusion of nine days of worship occurred on the main day of Bijaya Dashami, preceding this ongoing practice. The distribution of jamara, tika, and formal blessings from senior family members started on Bijaya Dashami. According to reports, this widespread custom remains active through Ashwin Shukla Ekadashi, representing the second day of receiving these holiday blessings. Tradition dictates that families continue these visits and exchanges of blessings until the arrival of Kojagrat Purnima, the full moon day. People throughout the country continue to honour this timeline by gathering with relatives to receive senior blessings.
