00:36in the temple of the Devi, we do the Pratishtha of the Devi.

00:41We do the Jathre Mahotsava from the Vijramonai.

00:47we do the Jathre outside the village.

00:52This is a special Jathre.

00:54There are no animals in the village.

00:57In the olden days, it was a Jathre Mahotsava,

01:01where the people used to take care of the plague, cholera and other diseases.

01:12In this Kaliyuga, we have been doing the same every year.

01:22The aim is to create equality among all the people.

01:30Along with that, we are very happy to invite all the visitors to do the Jathre Mahotsava.

01:42We do the Jathre Mahotsava with the aim of creating a sense of unity.

02:00One important thing to say is that,

02:04no illegal activities have taken place in the village so far.

02:12There has been no theft or robbery.

02:16For this, our police officers and the villagers have worked hard to maintain peace.

02:26We have been organizing this Jathre Mahotsava from the Vijramonai.
