The Modi Hat Durga Temple, located in Rajaun market within Rajaun block of Banka district, has been a significant center of faith for devotees since 1986. Initially, an idol of Maa Vaishnavi Durga was installed in a tent for worship and a fair, followed by the construction of a grand temple in 1987. Since its establishment, this site has been a symbol of profound devotion throughout the region.

Each year during Shardiya Navratri, magnificent idols of Maa Durga, along with Mata Lakshmi, Saraswati, Lord Ganesha, Kartikeya, and Lord Mahadev, are installed. From the first day of Navratri until Navami, the entire area resonates with verses from Durga Saptashati and devotional hymns. On Mahashtami, thousands of women from Rajaun, Navtoliya, Naripa, Barauni, Bhusiya, Uparama, Dhoni, and other distant villages arrive to offer traditional 'daliya'.

On Mahanavami, idols of Maryada Purushottam Shri Ram, Mata Sita, Lakshman, Radha-Krishna, and Hanuman Ji are installed, followed by a 24-hour Akhand Harinam Sankirtan and a grand community feast (Mahabhandara). On Vijayadashami, after 'Hawan-Yagya' and 'Maha Aarti', the idols are immersed late at night with tearful goodbyes. According to temple priest Acharya Anil Yadav, Purohit Ajit Pandey, and assistant Sanjay Thakur, this sacred shrine fulfills every wish of its devotees.

The grandchildren of the temple's founder, Modi Prasad Yadav, along with other members of the puja committee including Sanjay Yadav, Ajay Yadav, Mukesh Vikrant, Sunil Yadav, Nilesh Yadav, Rakesh alias Rakku Yadav, Rahul Yadav, and Rohit Yadav, are actively involved in organizing the grand event. Sculptors are giving final touches to the idols, and artisans are diligently working on constructing the grand pandal and attractive archways at the main entrance. Comprehensive arrangements are also being made for clean drinking water, food, sanitation, and children's entertainment within the fair premises, ensuring that this major festival can be celebrated with dignity and in a peaceful atmosphere with the support of local police and administration.
