Mahamaya Temple, Devipur

Devipur: Situated atop a hill in the village of Devipur—located adjacent to the district headquarters—stands the temple of Goddess Mahamaya. Here, on the auspicious occasion of Chaitra Navratri, members of the tribal community seek to propitiate the Goddess through various religious rituals and practices rooted in their ancient traditions. By sowing *Jaware* (sacred barley sprouts) and performing rites, they pray for their own well-being, a bountiful harvest, and the overall happiness and prosperity of their families and society. Grand fairs are held at this site during both Chaitra Navratri and Sharadiya Navratri.
