A grand procession was taken out on Wednesday in Jhajha town area of Jamui district for the immersion of Durga idols established at four puja pandals. Before the procession, Maha Aarti was organized at all puja pandals, where a large number of devotees gathered.

Following the Maha Aarti, women traditionally played 'Sindoor Khela' (applying vermillion on each other) and exchanged greetings for Vijayadashami. The procession, which commenced late in the evening, saw devotees dancing and chanting 'Jai Mata Di' to the beats of drums and devotional songs. As the procession moved through the town, it was warmly welcomed by residents at various points. Youngsters also enthusiastically danced to devotional tunes.

Finally, the procession reached the railway pond, where the idols of Goddess Durga and other deities were immersed with full rituals. The administration remained vigilant to maintain peace and order during the immersion. Police forces and magistrates were deployed at various sensitive locations to prevent any untoward incidents. The entire town of Jhajha was immersed in a devotional atmosphere on the night of Vijayadashami.
