Nepal Celebrates Bibah Panchami with 111-Meter Chunri
Nov 24, 2025
A 111-meter Chunri has been offered to Nepal’s Janaki Temple by the Jin Mata Trust from Surat, Gujarat, as part of the Bibah Panchami celebrations. The massive red Chunri was carried in a grand procession through Janakpur, with thousands of devotees joining the ceremonial journey. Janakpurdham, the paternal home of Goddess Sita, is glowing with festivity as it celebrates the second Bibah Panchami after the Pran Pratishtha of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. Around 500 devotees from Ayodhya have reached Janakpur as baaratis for the divine wedding of Lord Ram and Goddess Sita. Preparations across the city revive the grandeur of the Ram Barat from the Treta Yuga, making the celebration a spectacular spiritual experience.
