The celebrations of the festival are different than the usual Teej
festivities. Unlike Teej, which is celebrated on the third day of the month
of Shravana, Kajli Teej is celebrated on the third day of the month of
Bhadra.
An exuberant procession of Teej in a decorated palanquin, starts from the
beautiful Naval Sagar and culminates at the Azad Park.
Cultural performances by the local artistes as well as by artistes from
Hadoti region are part of the celebrations. Though the Teej procession is
carried out for only two days, the festivities continue till the eighth day,
finally ending on Janmashtami, the birth anniversary of Lord Krishna. |
