Devotees thronged major pandals from the early hours, marking the spiritual high of the festival, even as traffic congestion and crowd management posed challenges for the City.
Mahasaptami, a key day in the Durga Puja calendar, marks the formal invocation of Goddess Durga. At sunrise, priests across Bhubaneswar's pandals conducted traditional Saptami rituals, including Nabapatrika Snan (bathing of nine plants), Shodashopachara Puja (sixteen-fold worship), and Saptami Homa, with devotees offering flowers, incense, fruits, and sweets.
