On the second Monday of Sawan, a wave of devotion swept across Shiva temples throughout the district. From early morning, devotees queued up at temples. In prominent Shiva temples in Hilsa, Bind, Silao, and Rajgir, chants of 'Har Har Mahadev' and 'Bol Bam' resonated throughout the day. Devotees performed 'jalabhishek' (ritual bathing) of Lord Shiva, offering belpatra, flowers, dhatura, milk, and Gangajal, praying for prosperity and fulfillment of wishes.

In Hilsa town, long queues of devotees were seen from morning at major Shiva temples, including Baba Abhay Nath Dham and Nandeshwar Sthan Daroga Kuan. A large number of Kanwariyas, carrying Gangajal from Fatuha Ganga Ghat, walked approximately 25 kilometers to Hilsa to offer water to Lord Bholenath. Women observing the Somwari fast, after bathing, decorated their puja thalis and reached the temples to perform rituals. The puja, which began in the morning, continued late into the night.
